MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Agent 9 is full of fun and adventure!” —Jennifer L. Holm & Matthew Holm, New York Times bestselling co-creators of the Babymouse and the Sunny series Dapo Adeola, Tracy Darnton, Joseph Coelho and Chitra Soundar are among the 19 authors and illustrators longlisted for the Inclusive Books for Child... The Characters are simple but effective and Brooks delivers on classic character cliches as if they are being told for the very first time. Agent 9 will no doubt be relatable to many kids and even some parents for her suave but also adorable dialogue that will make anyone reading smile. She won’t be alone as her robotic assistant FiN also gets some time to shine even despite the fact he only uses one word to talk. King Crab is your classic incompetent villain who you’d think would get old after a while but the writing and pacing know how much incompetence to show from our villain while still making him funny and a decent threat. If there is a sequel on the way, I would love to see more characters work alongside Agent 9, but the cast that we do get satisfies well enough to make for an enjoyable secret agent mission. The Super-Secret Spy Service's mission is to keep the world safe from maniacal villains. And Agent 9 is one of its best operatives. Although Nine always manages to complete the mission, there is occasionally some collateral damage (like the priceless Pigasso painting that was destroyed while foiling an art heist). So Agent 9 is now on probation.

Agent 9 is a confidant and competent secret agent who is also a cat. After being put on probation for her clumsy actions when trying to stop evil threats, Agent 9 is given one more chance to redeem herself as she finds herself in the middle of an evil plot by King Crab as he plans to melt the polar ice caps and flood the earth so he can build his own water park. The only thing standing in his way is Agent 9 as well as her robotic assistant FiN who will try to put an end to Crab’s plans before he can initiate Flood-A-Geddon. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Agent 9 is full of fun and adventure!" —Jennifer L. Holm & Matthew Holm, New York Times bestselling co-creators of the Babymouse and the Sunny series Agent 9 faces a race against time to reach Captain Crab’s (not so) secret island lair to try and stop this evil plan and save the world from ‘flood-a-geddon!’ MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! Agent 9 is full of fun and adventure!" --Jennifer L. Holm & Matthew Holm, New York Times bestselling co-creators of the Babymouse and the Sunny seriesAgent 9 and his robotic partner FiN are called in by the Super-Secret Spy Service to save the world from bumbling supervillain King Crab and his diabolical plans to melt the polar ice caps and build a massive water park. I'm looking forward to seeing further Agent 9 adventures; at a time when interest in graphic novels is rising, this series should find lots of new fans. Fast-paced, fun and with bags of appeal through Agent 9's determination to win through against the odds, the story will keep readers gripped. I've given the age range of 7+, but it has plenty of appeal to much older children, too. A great addition to the graphic novel bookshelf! But before O can assign them a new mission, he and all the other ‘super-silly spy agents’ are kidnapped by supervillain King Crab. Agent 9 and Fin are the only ones who escape. But when bumbling supervillain King Crab manages to overtake S4 head-quarters, there is no one else to turn to. Nine - along with a robotic partner named FiN - is all that stands between King Crab and his diabolical plans to melt the polar ice caps and build a massive water park. Can Agent 9 prove to be the right cat for the job by overcoming impulsive behaviour and saving the world from a complete flood-a-geddon? The personification of the characters throughout this graphic novel is exemplary. James Burks has managed to capture the nature of those who are constantly on the go, making impulsive decisions and striving for the top spots. His use of colour, panel size and placement give power to parts of the story, amplifying the action which is carefully punctuated with words and leading to the fast-paced nature of this story.

Agent 9 and their robot fish partner Fin beg for one more chance to prove themselves and be officially taken off probation. A joyous and charming book - entertaining and witty, this will have so many fans in school and will get passed around class with great delight. To fully enjoy this book you will need a copy in front of you. As with any good graphic novel, this is not a bedtime story or a whole class read but has a very important part in the classroom none the less. But when bumbling supervillain King Crab manages to overtake S4 head quarters, there is no one else to turn to. Nine - along with a robotic partner named FiN -is all that stands between King Crab and his diabolical plans to melt the polar ice caps and build a massive water park. Can Agent 9 prove to be the right cat for the job by overcoming impulsive behavior and saving the world from a complete flood-a-geddon?
