It is summer and all of Max’s friends are on holiday. Even his grandma has gone away. She is a secret Agent and has travelled to South America
for a TSM – Top Secret Mission. She is joined on her assignment by another secret Agent, Faisel. Max has promised to water Faisel’s garden while he is gone. It seems like a boring job, but then Max meets Faisel’s newest invention: a walking, talking robot named Ginger. But there is one problem: the robot isn’t really finished yet. So, when it is stolen by someone who wants to turn it into a guard for the prime minister, Max must hurry to get Ginger back before things go terribly wrong.
Praise:
‘A carefully crafted story, with lots of dialogue and humour, but also a serious undertone. […] A humorous and adventurous story in which the author plays with the image of two seemingly opposite kinds of grandmas and the kind that grandchildren wish they had.’ – nbd Biblion
Praise on Secret Agent Grandpa:
‘Secret Agent Grandpa will appeal to both boys and girls and you don’t need to have read the earlier instalments to follow the narrative. The story is so exciting you just can’t stop reading.’ – in de boekenkast
