Newly discovered sister Izzy (from The Great Big Boom) and pals D.J. and Gina help extraterrestrial robot-boy Hilo disarm several metal monsters buried on Earth by Hilo's nemesis Razorwark. In this fourth graphic novel, silly humor and visual gags ("Look! I made an owl �robot]. It farts roses") will keep readers giggling, even as Winick hints at a darker connection between Hilo and Razorwark.(Copyright 2018 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston. All rights reserved.)
