Review

I received this book from Goddess Fish Promotions in exchange of an honest review.

I just had to sign up. How can I resist? Guinea pigs with superpowers? Saving the day, or well the night as that is when they get superpowers? YASS!

In this adorable book we meet two guinea pigs, Fuzwald (cute) and Rex (adorable) who live together. They seem like normal guinea pigs, but BOOM at night? When everything is silent and their mom is to bed? They grow! GROW! GROOWWW! And then they save the city! From saving kitties to defeating robots, everything is on the menu and I just love seeing all they do. I am sure you wonder why these two got their powers? Well, there is a certain kind of guinea pig food that gives pigs their powers. It doesn’t seem to be easy to be found, but I am curious if there are other guinea pigs saving the night from evil doers. I wouldn’t mind another book with this duo meeting other super pigs!

The book is also in rhyme and I liked it! OK, some rhymes felt like they could use a bit of work, but in overal I liked them and they made the story even more fun to read.

The illustrations were fun, I love the colours + the outfits of the piggies was so fun (and cute).

But a small question in regards to the illustrations, if the guinea pigs grow 5 times in size how are they the smaller size as squirrels? From what I know and also what google tells me Guinea Pigs are around 20-25 centimetres long that multiplied by 5 would mean they are around 1 metre. However, in the pictures with the kitten and the squirrels. Everyone was bigger than them? How? But in another picture they are almost as big as a car? Hello? Help?

But all in all, I had a lot of fun reading this one! I love guinea pig and making them superpowered is just so much fun, I was rooting for them all through the night. Recommended to all~

Join Fuzwald and Rex, two guinea pigs with a secret life! By day, they’re your cuddly pets, but when the moon rises, they transform into unlikely superheroes, thanks to a special lab-made treat. In this heartwarming and amusing rhyming story, follow their nighttime escapades as they tackle daring missions, rescue kittens, and maintain order in their tiny world. With impeccable disguises and unwavering courage, Fuzwald and Rex prove that heroes come in all shapes and sizes. Enjoy this delightful tale that will tickle your funny bone and warm your heart, reminding us that even the smallest among us can be the mightiest heroes.
