Max Remy is eleven and bored with her life. Her father went off to Hollywood and ends up married to a movie star and Max is left with her mother who works, works, works all the time. So Max invents Alex Crane, a super spy, and begins to fantasize about the life of a spy. Then horrors: Max's mother sends her off to live with her aunt and uncle on a farm for the entire summer. Dull, you think. But then she stumbles into a real spy ring, and uses her wits to outsmart the evil Mr. Blue. Max Remy is now a card-carrying member of the international organization Spy Force and the adventure has just begun.

Isabella and her friends have settled into life in New City, attending school and making new friends--including the charming, talented, and eminently humble Aleksander Larson. Isabella quickly finds herself leaning on Aleksander's friendship, a move that distances her friends, particularly Xavier. Meanwhile, the world's weather patterns are becoming increasingly erratic, and the Bureau of Weather and Climate has been failing to predict severe weather events--a failure that endangers the lives of those in New City and plunges the city into rumor and doubt. As a massive storm of ice and snow sets in, it seems the New City can no longer be the safe home its inhabitants need. As friendships, politics, and the weather become increasingly unstable, Isabella, Griffin, Xavier, and their friends must decide where their loyalties lie, face that which seems too good to be true, and once again save this new city they've decided to call their home.

I, The Wolf, am sick of being the bad guy. I'm taking over this book. Dear Readers, Fairytales are nonsense. They're full of wolves pestering pigs and picking on sweet little girls in red hoods. But I would never do those things. I knit! I bake blueberry pie! You know what I really want to do? I WANT TO RESCUE A PRINCESS! And if I can't? I QUIT! Yours sincerely, Wolfie Wolfie may want to be a hero, but he's about to discover that arguing with this book's narrator is not the best way to improve his image...

Bold, colourful readers with kid-friendly characters and subjects they'd choose for themselves.
