Can an undercover nerd become a superstar agent? Ben Ripley sure
hopes so--and his life may depend on it
Ben Ripley may only be in middle school, but he's already pegged
his dream job: C.I.A. or bust. Unfortunately for him, his
personality doesn't exactly scream "secret agent." In fact, Ben is
so awkward, he can barely get to school and back without a mishap.
Because of his innate nerdiness, Ben is not surprised when he is
recruited for a magnet school with a focus on science--but he's
entirely shocked to discover that the school is actually a front
for a junior C.I.A. academy. Could the C.I.A. really want him?
Actually, no. There's been a case of mistaken identity--but that
doesn't stop Ben from trying to morph into a supercool undercover
agent, the kind that always gets the girl. And through a series of
hilarious misadventures, Ben realizes he might actually be a
halfway decent spy...if he can survive all the attempts being made
on his life
In this follow-up to the Edgar-nominated "Spy School," top-secret
training continues into summer for aspiring spy Ben Ripley--and so
does the danger.
Ben Ripley is a middle-schooler whose school is not exactly
average--he's spent the last year training to be a top-level spy
and dodging all sorts of associated danger. So now that summer's
finally here, Ben would like to have some fun and relax. But that's
not going to happen during required spy survival training at a
rustic wilderness camp, where SPYDER, an enemy spy organization,
has infiltrated the spies' ranks. Can Ben root out the enemy before
it takes him out--for good?
Twelve-year-old Theodore "Teddy" Roosevelt Fitzroy has murder on
his hands and trouble on his tail. He believes that Henry, the
hippopotamus at the brand-new FunJungle, has been murdered. The
zoo's top brass claim the hippo went belly up the natural way, but
Teddy and his feisty friend Summer McCraken have other ideas. Could
the culprit be FunJungle's animal-hating head of operations? Or is
it FunJungle's owner--Summer's dad--a man who is much more
concerned about money than animal welfare? The deeper Teddy and
Summer dig, the more danger they're in--because when it comes to
hippo homicide, the truth can't be caged!
