But they left behind one thing: Shootertron, the semi-cunning leader of the evil Fantasticons! Fortunately for Earth, Shootertron’s memory is a little fuzzy. Unfortunately for Earth, the rest of the Incredible Change-Bots seem to be on their way back… It’s all-new action, drama, and comedy as Shootertron struggles to find an identity on Earth and the rest of the Change-Bots struggle to accomplish much of anything.<\/p>\n

So what is this book about? It’s about a Pirate Penguin named Pirate Penguin and a Ninja Chicken who isn’t. They are the bestest of friends and also the worstest of enemies, all at the same time (just like in real life! Only more cartoony of course).\u00a0We think you’ll like this book, as there are about a bajillion jokes inside, and it’s filled with action, adventure and arguments.<\/p>\n
