Description

 

A funny art heist mystery that will steal your heart!

The country is gripped with Mona Lisa Fever! The Royal Family

has announced a huge reward for the return of a missing version of

the Mona Lisa, stolen from their palace over 200 years

ago.

But in the town of Colpepper, Mia has a different art problem:

she loves art, but her underfunded school is closing down the art

department! But there’s more to her school than meets the eye.

Little-known local legend has it that the historic building contains

a hidden vault, perhaps containing the Lost

Mona Lisa! So Mia has no idea that scheming criminals

are hiding among the school staff.

Meanwhile, Mia’s former-best-friend Jake has endless conspiracy

theories that always seem to get Mia in trouble. His latest ones

are about the headmaster being a lizard person,

and that maybe Mia’s parents are The Fish, a renowned art

thief who has never been caught.

True, Mia’s parents are acting strangely, taking evening courses

in acrobatics and dressing in tight, black jumpsuits. And lately

there have been a lot of weekend trips to art galleries all over

the country… bah! But that’s ridiculous!

Hilarious throughout and featuring a jaw-dropping twist at the

very end, this is the perfect follow-up to CHOCOLATE MILK, X-RAY

SPECS AND ME

The story is told in emails, texts, notes and coded messages

between the various characters, and chock full of funny illustrations

by Jack Noel. And it has a shiny, metallic blue cover!

Perfect for fans of Louie Stowell’s Loki, Tom Gates,

Charlie Changes Into a Chicken, and Pamela Butchart’s books.
