1: Another Winner From Mark Crilley!
Akiko's back! As a reward for her rescue of the Prince in the previous books, King Froptoppit rewards Akiko by sending her (And her pals Mr. Beeba, Spuckler, Gax, and Poog) on a trip to The Intergalactic Zoo. Unfortunately, once the owner finds out 'Kiko is an "Earthian" he kidnaps her and adds her to his private collection... Mark Crilley does his usual excellent job; The writing is brisk and fun, and the illustrations are excellent. Akiko is probably one of the most likeable characters I've read about in a long time. The book itself is beautifully designed, and the hardcover is a great value. Highly recommended!
