Details

Martin isn't too excited about his new babysitter, Darla. She'll never be as cool as his old babysitter, Bruce, and-yuck-she likes to dance, just like his moon-eyed parents! Martin is pretty sure he'll always prefer his favorite superhero, Zip Rideout, to dancing, even though the older boys tease him: "Absolutely no amount of growing up would make him change his mind about Zip." But guess who else likes Zip Rideout? This and other surprises await in these two stories about exuberant elementary-school kid, Martin Bridge.

Level Intermediate Readers Pages Count 112 Genre Fiction Summary In “Moon Eyes,” Martin has a rough day when he is teased by Thomas, an older boy, for still wearing a Zip Rideout jacket. Worse, when Martin’s parents go out dancing, they hire a new sitter, the gushy and girly Darla! Over the course of the evening, Martin and Darla find common ground learning a dance step and watching Zip Rideout. The next Monday on the bus, Thomas, who is sweet on Darla, is humbled and silenced when he learns that Martin has her phone number and has danced with her—and that she, like Martin, is a huge fan of Zip Rideout. The bad news for Martin? The girls on the bus all love to dance, and they are now all making “moon eyes” at him. In “Props,” Martin and his friend Stuart are playing inside a Zip Rideout rocket when the toy store closes—with the boys locked inside! Their only hope of rescue is to attract the attention of a passersby through the display window, but Martin must first overcome his fear of store mannequins. Topics Favorite cartoons. Sitters.
