Reach for this book when your child is feeling small in a big world or needs a confidence boost through humor. This hilariously absurd spy mission stars Mac B., an ordinary kid who happens to be a top secret agent for the Queen of England. When the ravens are stolen from the Tower of London, Mac must travel to Iceland to face his archnemesis and save Britain from ruin. It is an ideal pick for reluctant readers who crave fast paced action and visual storytelling. While the plot is delightfully ridiculous, the book subtly explores themes of resilience and self reliance. Mac often finds himself in over his head, but his ability to think on his feet and stay curious helps him overcome obstacles. The tone is consistently lighthearted and comedic, making it a safe choice for elementary aged children who enjoy slapstick humor and historical trivia woven into an adventure. It is a fantastic tool for building a child's identity as a capable problem solver.
