Can an undercover nerd become a superstar secret agent? The first book in Stuart Gibbss New York Times bestselling Spy School series is now a graphic novel! Ben Ripley may only be in middle school, but hes already pegged his dream job: CIA or bust. Unfortunately for him, his personality doesnt 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 hes entirely shocked to discover that the school is actually a front for a junior CIA academy. Could the CIA really want him? Actually, no. Theres been a case of mistaken identity--but that doesnt 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! With action-packed, eye-catching art, join Ben Ripley as he survives his first year at the Academy of Espionage.Stuart Gibbs is the New York Times bestselling author of the Charlie Thorne series, FunJungle series, Moon Base Alpha series, Once Upon a Tim series, and Spy School series.

Stuart lives with his family in Los Angeles. You can learn more about what hes up to at StuartGibbs.com. Anjan Sarkars preferred illustration style is wonky and slightly misshapen, which he realized around the time that he started drawing with his children (who are masters of the wonky line). His work is influenced by illustrators like David McKee, Jill McDonald, and Maurice Sendak, whose books he read as a little person. Anjan is also unhealthily obsessed with a few contemporary illustrators such as Benjamin Chaud, Sara Ogilvie, and Neal Layton. Since becoming a full-time illustrator, hes created illustration for childrens books, animation, and advertising. Anjan works from a little studio in his house in Sheffield, England, where he lives with his wife and two kids.Book specifications:Collection: Spy SchoolDimensions: 208 x 140Author: Stuart GibbsCover type: PaperbackPublishing Year: 2022Publishing Month: 2Pages: 296Language: EnglishPublisher: Simon & Schuster Books for Young ReadersWeight: 476 g
