<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>A little guy just wants to be a spy in this funny, rhythmic picture book about sneakiness and perseverance, featuring a sweet father-son bond.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Spy Guy is a spy--but not a very good one. He's too loud, too squeaky, and in need of a good disguise. All Spy Guy wants is to figure out the secret to spying. But as the Chief says, <i>that</i> he must discover for himself. With a lot of trial and even more error, can Spy Guy figure out the secret to spying?<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Fluffy fun that promotes visual literacy and will make a positive addition to interactive storytime collections." <br><i><b>--School Library Journal</b></i> <p/> "Santoso's art conveys broadly comical action, and his slightly retro palette and exaggerated cartoon style are well-suited to the undercover prowess Spy Guy seeks." <br><i><b><i><b>--Kirkus</b></i></b></i> <p/> "Santoso's crisp images and liberal use of white space keep the focus on domestic comedy...but it quickly turns into a tribute to savvy parental mentoring." <br><i><b>--Publishers Weekly</b></i> <p/> "Santoso's wonderfully noirish illustrations make this book fun and engaging, as do Young's rhyme schemes and wordplay." <br><i><b>--Booklist</b></i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Jessica Young </b>grew up in Ontario, Canada, and now lives with her family in Nashville, Tennessee, where she is an art teacher and writer.
