3.0 out of 5 stars Not as strong, February 12, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot vs. the Voodoo Vultures from Venus (Ricky Ricotta, No. 3) (Paperback)

Ricky Ricotta's Giant Robot Vs. the Voodoo from Venus isn't as strong an outing as the previous two books in this series. But it's still a good read.

Ricky and his robot are in trouble at home and lose their tv privileges. This allows them to avoid being hypnotized by a vulture bad guy on Venus who wants to (you guessed it) take over Earth. As usual, Ricky is resourceful and the Robot is strong and the good guys save the day.

This review is from: Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot vs. the Voodoo Vultures from Venus (Ricky Ricotta, No. 3) (Paperback)

It was a good book because of the great battle. The voodoo vultures from venus sure did get a a good beating. The pictures are really great. Rickys Ricotta's Robot is really mighty robot. I think Kindergardeners - Second grade would like this book a whole lot.

This review is from: Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot vs. the Voodoo Vultures from Venus: Giant Robot Vs. The Voodoo Vultures From Venus (Hardcover)

I have two sons (ages 6 and 8) who both really enjoy this Ricky Ricotta series. After reading the reviews on the paperback versions of these books being flimsy, we decided to spend the extra money and get the hardcover books. They are super! We'll enjoy them for several years to come...then pass them on to other friends/family when we're ready to.
