Ricky Ricotta’s Mighty Robot vs. The Voodoo Vultures from Venus (Book #3) by Dav Pilkey –ADVISABLE


Pilkey, Dav and Illustrated by Santat, Dan Ricky Ricotta’s Mighty Robot vs. Voodoo Vultures from Venus (Book #3) EARLY READER Scholastic Inc.; Reprint edition; 2014 (Reprint). $15.99 Content: G
Ricky needs learns about responsibility when he keeps showing up for dinner late and must miss his favorite show. In the meantime, Victor Von Vulture and his army of Voodoo Vultures from Venus are determined to come to earth and pig out. Ricky and Mighty Robot must step in if they are going to save the day. This time they come up with a sneaky plan to start off the battle right.
This has been my favorite book in the series so far and was laugh out loud funny. I liked that a little mini-lesson about responsibility was thrown in for good measure. I have started to really enjoy the flip page action scenes and think they are so much fun! Students will love this series! (Especially when I tell younger readers ‘Not yet’ for Captain Underpants but yes to this series).
