Pirate Penguin vs. Ninja Chicken

by Ray Friesen

Rating: ***** (5 stars)
Age group: Anyone who can read
Type: Humor/Graphic novel

This a great book!!!!!!!!!
It is really funny. It is about two frenemies, Pirate Penguin and Ninja Chicken. They are friends AND enemies. That is what frenemies means.
This book has 3 parts: Part 1 is a collection of short stories about the kind of trouble Pirate Penguin and Ninja Chicken  get into. Part 2 is a big story that actually has chapters. Part 3 is activities and the epilogue and the outroduction. 
In Part 1 the stories are short but funny, like in one of them Pirate Penguin and Ninja Chicken go into a sword shop and look at the swords and they have a pretend fight with the swords before buying them and then one of them breaks and you know... they would have to pay for it so they run away. 
In another one they order smoothies and Pirate Penguin drinks out of both and Ninja Chicken gets really mad at him and they fight. 
In Part 2, Ninja Chicken is going to a Ninja Convention so Astronaut Armadillo takes Pirate Penguin to space. Also, at the Convention, Kung Fu Koala releases a huge monster from another dimension!!!! Now Pirate Penguin and Ninja Chicken have to save the world from a huge monster!!!!
Part 3 just has funny activities like how to make nunchucks, a pirate hat, and Ninja Chicken SUPER-HARD SuDontKu. The Outroduction is really funny too!!! It is kind of like the About the Authors that people put in the backs of books. 
This book is SUPER FUNNY!!!! It is also a graphic novel! I strongly urge everybody to read this book!!!!!!!!!

Fighting: yes, but only cartoon fighting.
Pregnancy: definitely not.

*There is one comic where Pirate Penguin thinks Ninja Chicken is a woman chicken and makes fun of him for it. But don't worry, it is not meant to be insulting to women.
*Also in a comic Pirate Penguin and Ninja Chicken break a sword and don't pay for it. That could be considered as vandalizing I guess.
