The Emperor's New Clones: Red Banana
Jonathan Emmett
A brilliantly funny first chapter book featuring a winning combination of space, sci-fi and sport!
Nine-year-old Robbie Remus has just become Emperor of the Galaxy. But all he really wants to do is play blasterball! He finds all of his official duties very boring indeed. If only there was someone else to do them for him.
But then Robbie meets Professor Parton. The Professor has just invented a cloning machine, which gives Rodney an excellent idea . . .

Pictures weren't that good

I liked this fictional book because Robbie is in space and just wanted to play blasterball, but got elected to be emperor! Robbie cloned himself, but the other clone shared the same mind as him. This story is quite funny. The other clone started cloning other clones and they all had the same mind and all wanted to play blasterball, so they all started arguing over jobs in the Palace.

I didn't really like this one! It was just about sports and emperor duties. I wouldn't recommend this one to a friend.

I wish I had a clone

The story was good, when Robbie discovered the science lab and made 7 clones. I would recommend to people who like basketball and silly stories.

none was sad. I am very happy that they had clones because utherwise he is the Empreror. his faverout thing to do is to play blasterball. his friend had a long sleeved top and boxer shorts.

Good book

Didn't like the 1st chapter as it was just about Blasterball and I hadn't heard of that but then it was good as the boy was chosen to be the Emperor. If I could make a clone of me I'd be happy as I could have some days off school.

The Emperor wants to play his favourite sport Blasterball but he is too busy being an Emperor. So he makes some clones to do his duties for him.

Best part was when Robbie made lots of clones.

It was a good idea to make one copy of yourself but not 7!

This book is a chapter book and isn't as predictable as some stories.
