Like many kids, Ben Ripley imagines life as a secret agent would be pretty awesome -- so when he learns he's been recruited to the C.I.A.'s top secret Academy of Espionage, it sounds too good to be true.  And it is.  From the moment he arrives -- and ends up in the middle of an enemy attack -- Ben finds Spy School is going to be far more difficult, dastardly and dangerous than he expected.  Even worse, he soon discovers that he hasn't been recruited to become a top agent; instead, he's been brought in as bait to catch a devious double agent.  Now, Ben needs a crash course in espionage so that he can catch the mole, prove his worth -- and get the girl.  It won't be easy, but it'll be a very fun -- and very funny -- ride.

Really want to read this book

I am reading this book and so far its good

I just finished this book last night! I am so happy that I read this book because it was really really really good. I also totally recommend this book to anyone!!!!!!!!!

Great book

In this book, Benjamin Ripley was drafted to a school that trains kids to be spies for the U.S government. Ripley was taken in unofficially because he part of a project (he didn't know) and was supposedly a coding genius who invented a code (named Pinwheel). The villainous group SPYDER tries to assassinate him but he survives. In the end, his best friend is the mole. I would love to read the next book.

There was a boy with a boring life and school he very much wished to get in a adventure. Then one day he came back from school and a guy in a black cloak was on the couch (the guy apparently let himself in) and the boy's life got interesting.

This book was awesome,people should totally buy this book over the summer. This had everything a books needs. And it had some funny parts overall.

This is one of my favorite books ever. I found the book very enjoyable and a definite page turner. I definitely suggest reading this book.

This was a pretty good book! I liked it because it had some h umor but it also was interesting. The plot is pretty good as well! I would reccomend!
