Spy School by Stuart Gibbs
Ben is a klutzy nerd who is mistakenly accepted into the junior CIA academy where he must uncover a plan that is threatening the school. The stakes are high, the laughs are loud, the twists are many, and the girl is smart.
Spy School is a great book by Stuart Gibbs, Ben is a klutz who was accidentally recruited by the junior CIA, where the whole national security system is compromised! Will Ben make it out dead or alive? You will find out if you read the book!
If you like good mystery then I recommend the book Spy School by Stuart Gibbs. I like this book because it is funny and a good cliff hanger. I also like the book because it is a good mystery. The book Is about a boy that goes to an academy for CIA agents in training. But suddenly someone tries to sabotage him and asks hi a lot of strange questions about a kind of code cracking ability called pinwheel.
Spy School, written by Stuart Gibbs is a great book about a twelve year old, smart, boy named Ben with a normal life, and normal friends, until he is accepted into a special school for spies in Washington D.C. After the first test he doesn’t think he can make it. But before he knows it there’s a mole in the school and the teachers, even Alexander Hale one of the most refined spies in America all think that Ben can find him. Suddenly a girl is introduced and all he wants to do is please her. This adventurous, action filled comedy is great for realistic fiction lovers. AK SPG GR5
Spy School by Stuart Gibbs is a action book so if you like those this is the book for you! It follows a 12-year old boy named Ben in a action packed adventure. He meets a lot of new friends! I like how Alexander Hale was a good guy until something happened but im not going to say. I liked when Ben used the tazer to open the door that was really cool. But I really liked when Ben escaped the “assassin” and ran down in his underpants that was really funny! All in all it was a really good book
Spy School by Stuart Gibbs is a very interesting book about a 12 years old kid named Ben Ripley who is accepted into spy school. On his first night there an assassin in his room that almost kills him. He is then sent into a highly guarded jail cell where he is safe. Soon he finds out that there is a mole in the school and Ben is being used as bait. He soon teams up with a girl named Erica to find the mole. I think Spy School is a great book. HAS SPG gr5
Ben gets to go to a secret school called SPY SCHOOL. He has adventures like being attacked by ninjas, also figuring out who the mole is, and love. He gets help from Alexzander Hale and his daughter Erica Hale (his crush). He also got attaked by an assassin. Ben wants to prove to people that he can be an awesome spy and not be a total nerd
I liked Spy School because it was an adventure. Stuart Gibbs had the best idea to write this book. My favorite part was when Ben shot the snow instead of Murray because he has bad aim, then the snow fell on Murray. Also it was funny that Alexander said he caught Murray even though Ben got Murray. I enjoyed the ending the most because I was shocked Murray was the bad guy. This is why spy School is funny, shocking, and awesome.
I think that Spy School is a great book for kids who like adventure, comedy and love. The book is about 12-year-old Ben Ripley and how he is sent to Spy School (Science School) and finds out he is a secret weapon. There he meets a friend Murray Hill who shows him around the school. But when there is a threat in the building a mole Ben and Erica (Another friend) must stop it. Can they do it or not? Find out in this cool Nutmeg book! CN SPG GR 5
Spy School by Stuart Gibbs is about a 12 year old boy named Ben Ripley. He is trying to get in to the Cia and this man put Ben in spy school. Finds out he is useful there and that’s not the right job for so I think he was still working and he had different mission to go on. I think one was a science lab and he did others missions. I remember that he set a bomb in a school.
