Battletown Tales 1 Rocks, Rats, & Role Models

From the world of Knockout Noel comes a tale about a group of kids, with differing home lives, who meet a terrifying monster, and the fierce battle that follows.

Sweet little, Alex Eberdar is a bubbling and athletic third grader who attends the barbaric Battletown Elementary where children are pushed to their physical limits daily. One day in class, the topic of personal heroes is discussed with Alex choosing none other than her boxing older sister as her hero. This comes into conflict when a troubled boy, named Ricky, in her class reveals that his hero is a notorious serial killer with a fearsome reputation for being the cause of death of countless others in a most gruesome manner. Boasting about the unparalleled power of his "hero," Ricky gives Alex and her loyal and steadfast best friend, Sara the ultimate challenge to prove whose strength is superior. What follows is an adventure filled with fearsome monsters, expired strawberry jam, and camaraderie tested by the flames of adversity. Will these three children with differing viewpoints learn to work together to overcome the great evil opposing them, or will they succumb to darkness while at each other's throats? The only thing guaranteed is that in Battletown, no one goes down without a fight!
