If you liked Stuart Gibbs' other mysteries, like Belly Up, and Space Case, you will like this book. It's about 12 year old Ben Ripley, who lives a normal life until one day, a spy shows up in his living room. The spy-Alexander Hale-tells him that he has been accepted to a mysterious spy school, and that he will be leaving immediately.

This is a really thought provoking story about pen pals Caitlin Alifrenka, and Martin Ganda. It's a non-fiction book, but it reads like a really good fiction book. How it started, is that Caitlin got a school pen pal from Zimbabwe. This is Martin. They write back and forth for some time, and Caitlin realizes her positive friend is living a hard life. His family can barely afford many things she takes for granted, like bread, milk, chicken, and even school. How can she help her friend when his country is going through hard times?

Ratchet (aka Rachel) has a "Save the environment" crazy dad, lives in a home called a "Handyman's Special", is home schooled, and doesn't have any friends. Oh, and her mom left when she was a baby. Rachet vows that this year, something will change.

A thief in a fairy tale who ends up going to reform school run by former villains? COUNT ME IN!!!!!!!
