Delbert: The Reluctant Spy

amazon barnes & noble Goodreads
Ten-year-old Delbert’s world is grey and glum since his grandfather died. Everything is a dull routine, and all Delbert wants to do is stay in his room. What’s more, he has to cope with an annoying next-door neighbour, Evie, who has committed her life to being in love with him.

But Delbert’s whole life is about to change when he is forced into a SUPER SECRET SPY MISSION to find a missing cat called Pandora. What seems like a straightforward job suddenly escalates into the stuff of real spy stories.

Bursting with humour and thrilling surprises, this fast-paced, action-packed story takes Delbert and Evie on a wild ride with an UTTERLY SHOCKING SECRET at the end…

Hott Review:

How adorable!

Delbert: The Reluctant Spy is amazing! I loved it!

It’s so funny my kiddos think I’m nuts, but it’s also a great book about loss. Of course, not everyone can hope for the outcome given here but still, I really loved watching Delbert grow as a character and his partners in crime are the perfect accomplices.

Kudos to Mr. Kitti for managing to tie his series together without making it awkward. Especially since I adore Jesper!
