Get Smart-ish

snicker9 - In this sequel to The League of Unexceptional Children, Jonathan and Shelley are just recovering from their previous mission. Then they are sent to the the United Kingdom to help the Prime Minister. One of their agents, Nina, has gone rogue and stolen a valuable serum, that addles the brain. It makes the person lose IQ points, and makes them extremely confused. It is Jonathan and Shelley's job to retrieve the potion, which they have been told Nina is going to use on government officials in order to sway their vote against a decision that will harm the environment. When Jonathan and Shelley first begin, it seems like Nina is ruthless and do whatever it takes(including kill) to save herself and the serum. But then Jonathan and Shelley begin to investigate...and things don't quite match up. Is Nina the villain? Or is someone else to blame? I really liked the concept of this book. There are a lot of stories out there today about kids who have superpowers, or are very intelligent. This is a book that literally praises the lack of unique qualities. I liked that this book had a mixture of elements of adventure and mystery. I recommend this book to elementary kids. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.
