A closer-to-perfect pairing couldn't be imagined. ★ "Cheeky humor and prideful asides will have listeners in stitches. This is the sort of story that makes children love to read."-School Library Journal (starred review) ★ "Laugh-out-loud funny and outrageous at times, this read-aloud will have listeners jumping out of their seats.
Forget reading aloud-this story demands bombastic, full-volume performances."-Publishers Weekly (starred review) ★ "Daywalt's text, set in a range of expressive fonts, combines the heightened verbosity of vintage action comics with the swagger of backyard scuffles, and Rex composes wildly dramatic battle scenes against backdrops of thunderstorms, erupting volcanoes, and missile launches. ★ "While kids will snicker reading this on their own, it's perfect for a guffawing share with younger sibs or buddy read, followed, of course, by a rousing game of Rock Paper Scissors."-Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books (starred review) ★ "The earnest gravity of the fighters' quests paired with the mundane setting and melodramatic tone are perfectly balanced to produce a brand of purely absurd, sidesplitting humor that kids will gobble up."-Booklist (starred review)
