Rating: Needs Parent Supervision

Reading Level: Early Elementary

This one has a few more concerns that with the previous books, but still not bad.

Possible Concerns:

  • Typical superhero story violence. Punching, zapping, etc.
  • Typical superhero sci-fi. The villain is a dart-vader-looking jackrabbit who lives on Jupiter.
  • Name calling. “Dum dum.”
  • Romance. The villain robots fall for a little girl mouse dressed as a rabbit. Their eyes turn into hearts and they seel to please her.
  • Distaste for relatives.

Things I liked:

  • Ricky has a good relationship with his parents.
  • Ricky shows courage.
  • This easy read is a hybrid between chapter book and graphic novel. It seems to be a great way to help reluctant readers keep reading.

Overall, this action-packed book is easy to read. I’m not a huge fan of the romance aspect, as I think our culture idolizes romance.
