Bringing her talents to a younger audience, the award-winning Kekla Magoon kicks off a fun chapter book series about a ten-year-old boy enlisted as a spy—along with his two savvy cats.
Alfie Hazard is thrilled when his big sister, Mika, comes home from college to live with their family at the embassy in Washington, DC. Usually her visits mean endless games, lots of laughter, and spontaneous late-night dance parties, but this time there’s something strange about the way Mika is acting. Bonnie and Baxter, Alfie’s talented cats, detect a suspicious smell on her shoes, and she’s spending an unusual amount of time locked in her bedroom closet. Mika definitely has a secret, and Alfie and the cats are determined to get to the bottom if it. When Alfie’s mom, the ambassador, tells the family that some classified documents have been stolen, it’s up to Alfie, Bonnie, and Baxter to investigate! Surely Mika couldn’t be the spy . . . or could she? Engagingly illustrated in black-and-white and featuring two fabulous cat characters, this series will appeal to fans of young chapter books like Ivy + Bean, Jasmine Toguchi, and Judy Moody—and may have kids dreaming about what their own furry companions are up to.
