(3) 4-6 School for S.P.I.E.S. series. Illustrated by Brandon Dorman. Thirteen-year-old foster kid Max gets sent to the Merry Sunshine Orphanage, which is secretly a school for spies. While Max enjoys developing his intelligence-gathering skills and going on secret missions, his main priority is finding his father. Some quickly developed plot elements require suspension of disbelief, but fans of espionage stories will enjoy the engaging characters and plentiful action.
