The creator of Goodnight Goon and The Runaway Mummy pulls from his mad-scientist brain a kid so attracted to slime, muck, dirt, and yuck he could only be called Icky Ricky. Uh-oh! Icky Ricky is in trouble and has a lot of explaining to do. Why? Well, you see . . . Someone spotted Bigfoot in Icky Ricky’s neighborhood!Icky Ricky and his friends had a teary funeral . . . for a pepperoni pizza.A crazy one-eyed squirrel stole his Palooka Pops.Icky Ricky’s trashbag hazmat suit might not be enough to protect him from mutants while he’s cleaning up trash around town. Is it the end of the world for Icky Ricky? Icky Ricky is up to his eyebrows in mayhem–and in ick! “Hits the gross-out sweet spot.”–Kirkus”I thoroughly enjoyed these books, and I look forward to more icky adventures from young Ricky.”–Nick Bruel, author of Bad Kitty
Michael Rex has written and illustrated over 40 books for children, including the gruesomely hysterical, #1 New York Times bestseller Goodnight Goon. His popular sword-swinging Fangbone! Graphic novels have been turned into an animated show that runs on Disney XD in the U.S., and many other markets worldwide. He visits schools across the country and internationally to share his books with students of all ages, and he has a master’s degree in Arts Education. His work covers a wide range of styles, from the simple, goofy rhymes of Truck Duck, to the heavily illustrated, yuck-filled Icky Ricky chapter books. He lives in New Jersey with his wife, two boys, and a dog named Roxy.
