Mac B., Kid Spy #5: The Sound of Danger
Illustrated by Mike Lowery
England is in trouble! A priceless violin has been stolen, and there's only one person who can help: Mac B., kid spy. Mac's adventure takes him on a top-secret museum night watch, zip-lining in Italy with his trusty corgi sidekick, and on an undercover mission in the heart of enemy territory. But when he ends up as a captured prisoner, is the mission lost for good?
★ "Barnett and Lowery bring the funny to the serious art of espionage in a perfect interplay of text and illustration...Barnett interweaves tidbits of global history fit for trivia lovers, while Lowery's comic-style images play a key role in the humor...Told with a sense of nostalgia for 1980s history and pop culture, the silliness and originality of this book will hook young readers." —School Library Journal, Starred Review
“Riotous.” —Publishers Weekly
“Barnett’s knack for both quirky situational humor and heartfelt sentiment work in tandem to create a balanced—while still outrageous—early-chapter-book caper.” —The Horn Book Magazine
