    About this ebook

    Secret agent Amelia Kidd has saved the world loads of times from evil geniuses and criminal masterminds—thanks to her great disguises, gadgets (which sometimes work), and her brilliance at improvising in sticky situations. The three secret agent case files in this book are:

    The Case of the Zombie Cows, in which Amelia visits a petting zoo where she’s chased by tick-tocking cows into the yard of pecking clockwork chickens! Time for another dastardly plan to rule the world to be stopped, with Agent Amelia on the clock.

    The Case of the Perilous Pipe, in which a new music teacher uses an enchanted pipe to make all the children follow her. Could it be the notorious Pied Piper’s pipe? Trust Amelia to crack the spell, though!

    The Case of the Creepy Cakes, in which an innocent desire for a doughnut uncovers a fiendish plot to take over the world! As the cream from exploding cakes in the bakery smothers every surface, Amelia can be sure she has uncovered the villains!

      The Case of the

      Zombie Cows

      During the holidays, when Mom’s not working, we go out for the day. Usually we try to go somewhere different. Most times we end up somewhere really cool, but other times we end up somewhere not so cool.

      This time Mom decided on the local petting zoo.Which is cool if you’re really young—but not so cool if you’re a secret agent who has definitely grown out of fluffy bunny rabbits.

      I admit I was sulking when we arrived. I was huffing and puffing as we made our way down the gravel path toward the farmyard. Unfortunately, Mom saw this as an opportunity for a bit of interrogation.

      Amelia, why, oh why, do you insist on dragging that big heavy bag everywhere we go? she said, jabbing a finger at my backpack. Just what do you think you’ll need?

      Stuff, I said, eyeing her carefully over the top of my sunglasses.

      Mom eyed me back.

      Sometimes saying stuff will cover it and Mom won’t bother to check what’s inside my backpack. But my mom is pretty smart, and every so often, curiosity gets the better of her.

      What kind of stuff exactly? she asked.

      Drawing stuff, I said innocently. So I can draw the fluffy bunny rabbits.

      Mom immediately raised a suspicious eyebrow. I’d obviously gone too far with the fluffy bunny rabbits. Now I was going to have to prove it or bring unwanted attention to my secret-agent activities.

      With the biggest sigh I could manage, I heaved off my backpack. I unzipped the flap, pulled out a drawing book and a handful of pencils, and waved them in the air. Of course the rest of my bag was stuffed with secret-agent stuff, but in the last week I’d seen Mom grow more curious about my backpack and had packed the book and pencils just in case.

      You have to think ahead when you’re a secret agent.

      I didn’t need to see them, Mom shrugged innocently.I was just making conversation.

      As I suspected, the petting zoo wasn’t very interesting.

      The animals were cute, but they were all small and fluffy. I couldn’t really see them anyway because there were lots of other kids crowding around—kids that were at least half my age!
