[edit] Trivia
- The book was originally called "Ricky Ricotta's Giant Robot." However, it was changed because he is only about 12 times taller than a mouse. Ricky and the Robot are comparable to Jimmy Sparks and Gigantor or to Johnny Sokko and Giant Robo.
- The Mighty Robot looks like the Iron Giant from Warner Bros.' The Iron Giant.
