There’s still so much teamwork at play, and the power of friendship. Wolf, who I always thought was the main character but is downplayed a lot in some of the other books. This installment, just like all the others, was super cute and adorable. He’s still my favorite character.Īpparently my kiddo does not like girls? or female characters? I think he got used to the original bad guys and their antics, and doesn’t want any newness. They’re not cool enough, maybe too cutesy compared to the bad guys. I just don’t like new characters, why do they need to change everything? I only like the original bad guys. *This review was verbally created by an 9-year-old boy, and transcribed by me* With fantastic illustrations and the right amount of text, this is a fun read- to be continued in the next book! This really takes the bad guys and turns that on its head in a fun and approachable way.įinal verdict: Best read in order, this installment of THE BAD GUYS is action-packed and sure to be entertaining to elementary-school-aged readers. This series would be great for readers who are looking for a lot of action, images, and are in between picture books and chapter books (or reluctant chapter book readers). The text is well-suited to the images and a lot of action occurs in the book (they are, after all, in the middle of an alien invasion). The characters are all really well drawn in Blabey's comic style.

What I loved: The images here are fantastic! A lot is conveyed through the black-and-white comic book style. The book does end in a cliffhanger for the next episode also.

This is best read in order for the context of the previous books and to know who all of the characters are. Told in an easy-to-read comic book style, most of the action is in the illustrations rather than the text. This episode of THE BAD GUYS has the crew planning for a way to stop the aliens and help the big bad wolf, who is now Godzilla-sized and tearing down buildings.
