The Blurb On The Back:
Frankie’s back, and this time it’s personal!
Frankie is a BIG FAT ZOMBIE GOLDFISH with hypnotic powers. When his owner, Tom takes him camping, something fishy starts going on. Could the zombie goldfish finally have met his match?
In story two, Frankie’s been kidnapped! Can Tom rescue his fishy friend before it’s too late?
Two big fat fishy stories that will keep you hooked and make you laugh out loud!
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The third in Mo O’Hara’s ZOMBIE GOLDFISH series is another fun, entertaining read that does a great job of showing the friendship between Tom, Pradeep and Frankie, introduces some potential new characters – notably Geeky Girl who is a lot of fun – and neatly satirises Steve Irwin/Bear Grylls type of adventurer/TV presenter. Out of the two stories, I preferred REVENGE OF THE PARANORMAL PETS to FRANKIE GOES WILD, mainly because I loved the other pets with superpowers – notably Molly the nearly invisible poodle and Toby the teleporting tortoise – and also because Geeky Girl is a welcome female addition to the cast. Once again Mareck Jagucki’s illustrations really add to the text and his sheep line will be a big favourite with fans of SHAUN THE SHEEP and there’s another neat little flip animation in the corner – a detail that makes me grin every time. All in all this is another book that made me grin like an idiot and I look forward to reading the next in the series.
