Synopsis

From the creator of CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS, comes an out-of-this-world friendship adventure - now in full colour. Victor Von Vulture hates the planet Venus! It's so hot that his food is always ruined; his toasted cheese sandwiches are way too gooey. What's a vulture to do? Move to the planet next door-Earth-where the food is much better. Victor Von Vulture and his army of Vultures invade the Earth by broadcasting through all the televisions in the world. That same night, Ricky Ricotta and his Robot are grounded. So, unlike the rest of the planet, they're not allowed to watch TV. The next day at school, Ricky realizes something very strange has happened. Fortunately, Ricky Ricotta serves those Vultures a big surprise! With the help of his giant Robot, Ricky saves the day once again.

Praise for the RICKY RICOTTA'S MIGHTY ROBOT series (original editions, published 2000-2005)
"An adventure story with great appeal . . . With barely more text than a long easy-reader, this title will be a heaven-sent choice for kids with reading difficulties." --SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL
"It's easy to see how Pilkey's high-action, easy-reading chapter novel with a comic book feel would appeal to younger readers. . . . Silly good fun." --KIRKUS
