Bookroo's summary

Meet Icky Ricky, a kid with a knack for getting into sticky situations. From digging a hole to China to finding treasure in trash, his adventures are messy and unpredictable. When he tumbles into a pigpen with a mega-pig, the stakes get even higher. Can Ricky navigate his way out of trouble, or will his love for all things icky land him in more hilarious predicaments? Dive into a world where muck and mayhem reign supreme, and discover if Ricky can clean up his act—or if he even wants to!

From the publisher

This Captain Underpants-style Stepping Stones series is half text, half illustration, and 100 percent humor. 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. And uh-oh! Icky Ricky is in a mess. Why? Well, you see . . . He’s digging a hole to China, in his backyard. He found a free toilet in someone’s garbage. (Score!) He fell into a pigpen . . . with a muddy mega-pig. Icky Ricky is up to his eyeballs in trouble–and ick!
