1-3Stepping Stone series.
Illustrated by
Guy Francis.
Adam Sharp, a grade-school secret agent, investigates why cargo ships are mysteriously sinking all over the world. He discovers they're being attacked by mechanical sharks controlled by General Menace. Cartoony art, with Adam always wearing a tuxedo--even while scuba diving--and a glib prose style make this a fast read, but most early readers won't know the James Bond genre being spoofed.
