These are the secret agent case files of Amelia Kidd.

She's saved the world loads of times from evil geniuses and criminal masterminds, thanks to her great disguises, her own gadgets (which sometimes work), and her brilliance at improvising in sticky situations.

These new stories break the mould in children's literature regarding exploding cakes, clockwork cows and a fiendish flute...The stories are: The Case of the Zombie Cows, in which Amelia visits a petting zoo, only to be chased by tick-tocking cows into the yard of pecking projectile clockwork chickens, that's another dastardly plan to rule the world all cogged out, then; The Case of the Perilous Pipe, in which a new music teacher uses an enchanted pipe to make all the children follow her - could it be the pipe notorious in Hamlyn? where you can trust Amelia to crack the spell, though; The Case of the Creepy Cakes - in which an innocent desire for a doughnut uncovers a fiendish plot to take over the world and the cream from exploding cakes in the bakery cover every surface.
