The Blurb On The Back:
The name’s Goldfish.
Zombie Goldfish.
Frankie, the world’s only BIG FAT ZOMBIE GOLDFISH, ends up swimming for his life when his owner, Tom, takes him to an aquarium. Can Frankie defeat a vampire kitten, sharks and a very hungry psychic octopus? In story two, TV show My Pet’s God Talent has come to town. But someone is stealing all the pets’ amazing abilities. Can Frankie stop the thief without revealing his secret zombie skills?
Two big fat fishy stories that will keep you hooked and make you laugh out loud!
( The Review (Cut For Spoilers): )
The Verdict:
The fifth in Mo O’Hara’s ZOMBIE GOLDFISH SERIES is another action-packed highly enjoyable affair divided into two stores that each pit Tom, Pradeep and Frankie against evil big brothers intent on riches and world domination. I really like the fact that Pradeep’s younger sister Sami now seems to be a regular part of the group (and I adored the little shark fin life vest she wears in the illustrations for the first story). Speaking of the illustrations, Marek Jagucki once again nails the illustrations – the flipper page corner animation is a lot of fun and the pictures are perfect for the action and events of the plot. O’Hara packs a lot of plot into each of the stories – I enjoyed the introduction of the mysterious Mr Oddjobz and his relationship with Antonio (who was exactly what I’d hope from a psychic octopus) and I equally welcomed the return of Solomon Caldwell and Geeky Girl (who seems to take a shine to Pradeep). The talented pets are hilarious (my favourite being Toby the tortoise) and Sanj, Mark and Fang are suitably boo-hissable (and as liable to try and get one over on each other as they are their younger brothers). There’s no sign of this series flagging and I really can’t wait to read Frankie and co’s next adventure.
