Synopsis

Agent Moose, the best (worst) secret agent in the Big Forest, and his slightly-more-intelligent sidekick Owlfred are on the case in this new full colour graphic novel series. Something fishy is going on at the South Shore. Folks just disappear and are never seen again. But when Agent Moose learns that a key witness has gone missing, he and Owlfred ride to the rescue. Will they find the missing turtle before time runs out? Perfect for fans of Dog Man and Bunny vs Monkey. Laughs on every page! Brilliantly illustrated by the winner of the 2021 Blue Peter Best Book with Facts Award for A Day in the Life of a Poo, a Gnu and You.

Reviews

What a brilliant book. Agent Moose is excellent for reluctant readers or anyone who loves comic style books. As a child I was such a reader - I hated books but couldn't get enough of comics. If these books were around then, I'm sure the transition from comics to 'books' would have been quicker, developing my love of reading earlier.

Jess Bradley's illustrations are absolutely fantastic. These are books that you can read over and over again. Agent Moose (Annonymoose) has to prove himself after mistakenly thinking that the moon had been moonnapped, when there had just been a total lunar eclipse. Another agent - CamoCameleon - is being celebrated for being the first agent to solve one hundred cases. Agent Moose is very cheesed off as HE wanted to be the first to one hundred.

The characters' disguises are hilarious. I love Owlfred (Agent Moose's sidekick), the jokes which run throughout and the characters they meet as they try to solve the mystery of the missing turtle. Fans of Dog Man will no doubt relish reading this book.
