Description: "Inventive, funny, and flat-out delightful. An absolute joy." -Rebecca Stead, Newbery Medalist for When You Reach Me "Reading Linda Urban's Milo Speck, Accidental Agent, is like encountering again the dangerous hilarity of Roald Dahl, the quick playfulness of Jules Feiffer, and the poignant heart of Jean Merrill. The adventures are madcap, the language funny as all get out, the villains horrendously evil --as they should be. But what is most wonderful of all is the story of how a tiny speck of a boy grows into his truest self--a self neither he nor the reader had ever anticipated." --Gary Schmidt, Newbery Honor winner and National Book Award finalist "With the ingenious, witty, and utterly delightful Milo Speck, Accidental Agent, Linda Urban has given us a contemporary masterpiece. This book is a joy." -Anne Ursu, author of The Real Boy and Breadcrumbs "Milo is a well-detailed character with a strong moral code, making him easy to root for." -- Kirkus
