Review

In this sequel to Earth Space Moon Base, Monkey and Robot dive in to see who or what has stolen the light from the sea. It's not until they get a sea monster to burp out all the starfish that the sea is back to normal.

Told in rhyme and accompanied by slimy tones of blue, green and mustard, this book is sure to appeal to young boys looking for a good adventure. The illustrations swirl and flow giving the true feeling of down below, and when that monster does BURP and eruption of laughter will also be heard. Good for a read aloud too.

Overall Book Score: fair
