Icky Ricky stars in more outrageous adventures with pals Gus and Stew. From adorning a massive backyard hole with an old toilet and discarded mattress to mucking about in an actual pigsty, messy and elaborate escapades feature zombie babies, ghosts, sausages, and more. Black-and-white cartoons add to the chaos of this formulaic but amusing addition to the series.

This Captain Underpants–style Stepping Stones series is half text, half illustration, and 100 percent humor.

The creator of Goodnight Goon and The Runaway Mummy pulls from his mad-scientist brain a kid so attracted to slime, muck, dirt, and yuck he could only be called Icky Ricky. And uh-oh! Icky Ricky is in a mess. Why? Well, you see . . .
            He’s digging a hole to China, in his backyard.
            He found a free toilet in someone’s garbage. (Score!)
            He fell into a pigpen . . . with a muddy mega-pig.
            Icky Ricky is up to his eyeballs in trouble—and ick!
