Ricky Ricotta's Mighty Robot is a brilliant full-colour graphic novel series for readers aged 5+ from the creators of Captain Underpants.
In each book, a cute mouse called Ricky Ricotta must use all his whit and cleverness to send off evil villains trying to conquer the planet, from giant mosquitos from Mars to evil penguins from Pluto. With the help of his Mighty Robot friend, Ricotta always wins the battle for the safety of the solar system, using lots of Flip-O-Rama action scenes and insect battles that children will love. The books are all so very funny, with a message of friendship and helping those in need at its core.
The series is guaranteed to win over any fan of Max Meow, Happy Hills and Press Start! . For more graphic novel series like this, do take a look at our blog post all about the Best Graphic Novel Series for 5 and 6 year olds.
