Joey and Johnny, the Ninjas: Get Mooned

Joey and Johnny, the Ninjas: Get Mooned is the first book in a clever, insanely funny, and highly entertaining illustrated series about two best friends and ninjas-in-training, perfect for fans of the Origami Yoda series.

Joey and Johnny are best friends, but they could not be more different. Joey follows all the rules. Johnny doesn't know what rules are. Joey is strategic. Johnny leaves everything up to chance. Joey is serious. Johnny is . . . well, he carries a clown hammer and wears a dooly-bopper on his head. But there is something these two boys have in common: They are ninjas. And they're both students at Kick Foot Academy, the premier ninja school in Lemming Falls.

But Kick Foot Academy's reputation is about to be put to the test. Their rivals at Red Moon Clan have mysteriously come into possession of state-of-the-art weapons—something that is totally not ninja. And now they have challenged Kick Foot Academy to a Test of Three, culminating in an epic Battle Royal. The outcome will determine which ninja school reigns supreme . . . and which shuts down forever.

• Opposites Attract Friendship: Joey is a by-the-book ninja-in-training. Johnny carries a clown hammer and has a dooly-bopper on his head. Together, they have to save their school.
• Hilarious Ninja School Story: Welcome to Kick Foot Academy, where the cafeteria is a food fight, the headmaster is terrifying, and extra credit might involve an ancient magical pea.
• Funny Illustrated Chapter Book: Packed with cartoons and over-the-top humor on every page, this series is perfect for fans of Origami Yoda and reluctant readers.
• Ninjas vs. Robots: The rival Red Moon Clan has ditched tradition for tech! Can two undersized ninjas defeat an army of giant MechaMoons in an epic Battle Royal?

Congratulations!

By turning this book over, you have effectively snuck up on the two ninjas on the front cover. STRIKE NOW! Find your own inner ninja and release the five-headed hydra palm, or perform the spinning ax-kick of One Thousand Band-Aids. Go ahead—you could use the training. I can tell. Perhaps I will let you take their places at my school, Kick Foot Academy. There you will learn the secret ways of the NINJA. Within this volume lay the answers to all these questions:

• How do you take attendance in stealth class?
• Can Joey and Johnny be bested by a mollusk?
• When is Soup Day? Why should you fear it?
• Will Red Moon Academy truly stop at nothing to shut down KFA?

You are moments away from knowing this and more. Join Joey and Johnny as they attempt to survive their classes, fulfill impossible missions, and defeat Red Moon. You will find, as they have, that the path of the ninja is long, dangerous, and very slippery in socks. . . .

“Those in search of a humorous, high-interest title that will especially appeal to boys need look no further.” - Kirkus Reviews

“Full of juvenile humor, the story line runs through scenarios young readers will find hilarious. Fans of super goofy series, such as “Captain Underpants”, will enjoy this silly adventure, especially if they are looking for a more challenging read.” - School Library Journal

“Zany humor and action drive the book, which offers a winning trifecta of ninjas, superheroes, and robots. Cartoonish drawings score additional laughs in this tale of underdogs and wannabes whose adventures have only just begun.” - Booklist
