It wasn't very long, and the forest became deadly quiet. There were no birds chirping or rustle of leaves, no squirrels squiring about the place, just dead silence. Suddenly, it became darker and darker and they could barely see in front of them. They could hear the scratching of bark on the trees, hissing, and a horrible smell filled the air like someone had threw up. The princess struck up her lightning stick and there were Darkeyes everywhere, on every tree jumping back and forth, hissing and drooling. Will Ricky, the prince, and the princess overcome the Darkeyes? Join Ricky on his most exciting adventure ever, as he retrieves the king's crown and defeats the evil Lord Vladamire. Also, there is a surprise ending guaranteed to thrill every reader. The Adventures of Ricky Raccoon is a great imagination building book for all ages.
