<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Amelia, a young secret agent, investigates some robotic animals, an enchanting music teacher, and a pair of remarkably beautiful twin bakers with a dastardly plot, all while avoiding her nemesis, Trudy Hart.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Secret agent Amelia Kidd has saved the world loads of times from evil geniuses and criminal masterminds--thanks to her great disguises, gadgets (which sometimes work), and her brilliance at improvising in sticky situations. The three secret agent case files in this book are: <br /> <br /> <em>The Case of the Zombie Cows</em>, in which Amelia visits a petting zoo where she's chased by tick-tocking cows into the yard of pecking clockwork chickens! Time for another dastardly plan to rule the world to be stopped, with Agent Amelia on the clock. <br /> <br /> <em>The Case of the Perilous Pipe</em>, in which a new music teacher uses an enchanted pipe to make all the children follow her. Could it be the notorious Pied Piper's pipe? Trust Amelia to crack the spell, though!<br /> <br /> <em>The Case of the Creepy Cakes</em>, in which an innocent desire for a doughnut uncovers a fiendish plot to take over the world! As the cream from exploding cakes in the bakery smothers every surface, Amelia can be sure she has uncovered the villains!<br /></p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>Amelia may look like a mild-mannered grade schooler with hipster sunglasses and a heavy backpack, but in reality she is a secret agent with enough gadgets to rival McGuyver and an imagination that puts Harriet the Spy to shame. Her plan is to save the world from evil geniuses and criminal masterminds, and she always succeeds. In each easy chapter book, she solves three cases that center on some bizarre doings. If there's a guy at the garden store raising mutant weeds, then a little herbicide will remedy the situation. If a couple is getting ready to rob a bank using an army of cats, then the yarn from an unraveled sweater will solve that problem. The child even manages to get the better of her nemesis, popular girl Trudy Hart. And the only one who gets even close to thwarting Amelia is her mom, who is just a little too curious about what her daughter lugs around in such a large backpack and why she appears rather friendless. <strong>These imaginative books will appeal to readers with a quirky sense of humor</strong> and might also find fans with readers of Dave Keane's 'Joe Sherlock, Kid Detective' (HarperCollins). --<em>School Library Journal</em></p>-- "Journal" (8/1/2011 12:00:00 AM)<br><br><p>Get ready to have your crimes and mysteries solved by Agent Amelia, Amelia Kidd--secret agent. Each of these first two volumes in the series by Michael Broad contains three different stories that this super-sleuth has documented in her case files. In each case, Amelia happens upon villains involved in some sort of foul play. She goes undercover by concocting a disguise as well as creating gadgets and goodies that will assist her. Readers will be intrigued with Amelia's adventures but at the same time take comfort in the predictability of her capers. <strong>Teachers looking for a good read-aloud series will enjoy introducing Amelia to their students.</strong> Readers of varying levels will appreciate the shorter text and larger font style with accompanying pencil drawings that are featured on each page. --<em>Library Media Connection</em></p>-- "Journal" (3/1/2012 12:00:00 AM)<br>
