In the second book of this comedic graphic novel series aimed at readers in grades 2-4, Super Potato is minding his business, flying along, when he is captured by Zort the Third, the Slug King, an alien who is collecting one specimen per planet. Unfortunately for Zort, he picked the wrong Earthling! Once aboard Zort’s ship, Super Potato hatches a plan to free himself and all of the other captive aliens. Using the programming of Zort’s dutiful Robot against itself, Super Potato soon has command of the situation though he didn’t take into consideration that not all aliens get along peacefully. In the end Super Potato is returned to Earth with the promise of future adventures. With humor, wham-bam action and appealing colorful, cartoonish illustrations, Laperla should continue to get fans for his superhero spud extraordinaire.
