    About this ebook

    Galaxy Zack has some “sweet” competition in this Easter-themed chapter book adventure!

    Zack and Drake venture to Gluco, the candy planet, for some Easter fun. Once there, the two friends decide to compete in activities, including an egg toss and a three-legged race. Zack remembers how he used to win all the Easter competitions on Earth, and he is determined to win them on Gluco, too. With the contest so close, Zack begins to wonder if he should cheat to ensure victory. Will Zack have to choose between playing fair or coming out on top?

    With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, the Galaxy Zack chapter books are perfect for beginning readers.

      What is better than a basket full of chocolate eggs? How about a planet made out of sugar and candy! Join Zack and his best friend Drake as they head to Planet Gluco for some Easter excitement and a friendly competition that tests their friendship. Is cheating ever a good answer? Galaxy Zack is an ongoing series that is great for early chapter readers. The text is simple and fun with graphics on every page. Set in a galaxy far far away this book will stretch the imagination of small readers with quirky aliens and wacky new worlds to explore. The characters are fun and go through similar issues that small children can identify with easily. The story moves quickly with a short lesson to be learned at the end. The dialog is easy for emerging readers to understand and enjoy. Fans of Mercy Watson, Junie B Jones, Judy Moody, and Stink will likely pick up this series. I found this title to be a fast read that will appeal to early chapter readers who are crazy about space. The lessons in the series are short and age appropriate with the right amount of action and graphics to keep the reader engaged.

    Zack arrived at the kitchen table. The booth hovered above the floor. Beside him sat his older twin sisters, Cathy and Charlotte. On the other side sat his mom and dad, Shelly and Otto.

    Dinner is served, said Ira.

    A panel in the wall slid open. A mechanical arm served steaming plates of food.

    Thank you, Ira, said Mom. All of this looks delicious!
