Review

Australian champion snowboarder Scotty James is now lighting up our bookshelves with a terrific younger graphic novel that encourages kids to shoot for the moon!


MOOKi arrives in his spaceship, and encourages his friends Cindy and Ralph to climb the highest mountain. They face many challenges along the way but nothing as terrifying as The Big Scary at the top of the mountain!


But being the heroes that they are, surely they will land safely on their feet?!


This is a terrific younger graphic chapter book with themes of resilience, facing your fears and working together that will be enjoyed by readers ages 7 to 10 years. Book Two is to be released soon so readers that enjoy this one won’t have long to wait for the next instalment!
