Sparks!

Written by Ian Boothby, Art by Nina Matsumoto


My 11 year old son snatched this from my pile of books to read. He quickly finished it and read it again. He said it was funny and action packed and highly recommended it to other kids. Students who like Bird and Squirrel or Hilo will enjoy this as well.

Interest Level: Grades 3-5

August is a brilliant inventor who is afraid of the outside. Charlie is a crack pilot who isn’t afraid of anything. Together these pals save lives every day. They also happen to be cats who pilot a powerful, mechanical dog suit! Always eager to leap into danger, this feline duo have their work cut out for them as they try to thwart Princess, an evil alien bent on enslaving mankind. Don’t let the fact that Princess looks like a cute, diaper-wearing baby fool you. She’s clever, determined, and totally ruthless. So when Princess and the browbeaten fools she calls servants enact a brilliant and dastardly plan to conquer Earth, August and Charlie pull out all the stops to save the day.
