Reviews

Praise for the series:

"This debut story for children by Anne Miller is a fast-paced mystery full of sparky wit and has lots of actual puzzles and codes for children to solve. Each character has depth and personality (Tilda the sloth is a joy) so not only will children become immersed in a jaunty adventure, they’ll also feel like a fully signed-up member of a very special and friendly spy club too." —BookTrust

"Ingenious and deliciously addictive... An absolute must for all curious enquiring minds." —Stephen Fry

"A spy who stands out from the crowd." —Telegraph

"Smart, charming and big-hearted. . . . A brilliant celebration of friendship, finding your own path, and of course, puzzles." —LoveReading4Kids
