Combining all the excitement of international espionage and all the awkwardness of elementary school, this exciting new series by New York Times-bestselling author of the beloved Sisters Grimm series is the story of a secret spy society made up of fifth-grade misfits who use their unique nerdiness to fight crime. Illustrated by Ethen Beavers.

Michael Buckley was born in Akron, Ohio. He tried his hand as a stand-up comic and lead singer for a punk rock back before attending Ohio University. An internship on the Late Show with David Letterman led to stints developing programming for Discovery Networks, MTV, MTV Animation, and Klasky Csupo (producers of Nickelodeon’s Rugrats). Today he lives in Brooklyn, New York with his wife, Alison, and their son Finn.

The author will sign books available for sale at the event. Free.
