About The Book

Send little spies to sleep with this hilarious, tongue-in-cheek lullaby set to the tune of Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star.

Dear Fellow Agents:

Your mission—should you choose to accept it—is to join Secret, Secret Agent Guy on his bedtime assignment, code name: Operation Lollipop. Equipped with night-vision goggles, a jetpack, and grappling hook, he is prepared for every eventuality...or is he?

Will this 007-year-old complete his covert quest, or will he be outsmarted by an adversary he never saw coming?

About The Author

Kira Bigwood

Kira Bigwood writes children’s books, TV commercials, and—much to her ten-year-old’s dismay—notes for her kids’ lunchboxes. She was once edited out of a My Little Pony ad because she was missing her two front teeth (not that she’s still hanging on to that or anything). Luckily, she has all her teeth now, and a much more positive attitude toward the editing process. Kira is a graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (go Heels!), and lives in Chicago with her husband and three children. Secret, Secret Agent Guy is her debut picture book.
