In The Super Spy, we follow the delightful adventures of Zoe Jones, a nine-year-old girl who leads a double life as Zinnia Jakes, a secret pastry chef.

Accompanied by her magical cat, Coco, her loyal best friend Addie, and her supportive aunty Jam, Zinnia embarks on a series of exciting escapades that blend friendship and creativity.

The story takes a thrilling turn when Zinnia's class organizes a sleepover in the school library, coinciding with a spy-themed party hosted by their parents in the hall. Anticipation builds as they plan to order a magnificent cake crafted by Zinnia herself. However, the fun quickly spirals into chaos when the parents, suspicious of Zinnia's secret baking identity, set up a clever spy trap to uncover the truth.

As the night unfolds, Zinnia must navigate the challenges of keeping her secret safe while ensuring the sleepover remains enjoyable for her friends. With clever thinking, teamwork, and a sprinkle of magic from Coco, Zinnia faces unexpected twists that test her creativity and courage. Will she be able to outsmart the spy trap and save the night? The Super Spy is a delightful tale of adventure, friendship, and the magic of baking that will captivate young readers.
