About the Book

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 that he could only be called Icky Ricky.

The Story

Uh-oh! Icky Ricky is in a mess and has a lot of explaining to do. Why? Well, you see . . .

A water demon took over the sink in the boys' bathroom!

Icky Ricky and his friends cleaned up the house—with a leaf blower.

His sweaty armpit is a perfect robber-proof bank.

The dead raccoon he bought at a garage sale is speeding downhill in a runaway go-cart. Can Icky Ricky stop it?

Icky Ricky is up to his eyeballs in trouble—and in ick!
