Tom is still
Frankie the Zombie Goldfish’s owner and guardian. Tom is excited to go on a
family vacation to the ocean, but there is a sign by the lighthouse that says that
an evil eel lives there. Tom’s brother Mark, the Evil Scientist wants to catch
it. Frankie and the Evil Eel might end up facing off. When Mark tries to mess with Tom’s school play
of Robin Hood, Frankie is going to have to swim in.
Again, a great
cover. This book was actually a bit better than the first, less confusing
because the plotline was focused in more. The illustrations are ironically cute
as they illustrate analogies in the text as well as plot elements. There was
much less ‘morons’ and other mean talk from the older brother in this one as
well. This second book was more readable and fun, but I don’t think it could
function as a stand alone, since students will be confused about how the
goldfish became the way he is.
