Melonhead solves a mystery in this Capitol Hill caper full of Katy Kelly's signature wit and clever storytelling.

Melonhead here—with more rules?! I already have the Remind-O-Rama list from my mom, which reminds me what I shouldn't do. Now my dad has created the Melon Family Guidelines for Life to remind me what I should do. And even though all these rules are so simple even a worm could follow them, I already have too much to think about. As Junior Special Agents with the FBI, my pal Sam and I have taken a pledge—it's our duty to help apprehend a fugitive from justice if we spot one. And believe it or not, we've spotted one not far from where we live! The Chameleon may think she's crafty, but we can see right through her wigs, plastic noses, and putty chins. We're undercover and on the case, doing surveillance and gathering evidence. But what you see isn't always what you get!

Praise for Melonhead and the Undercover Operation:

  • "The humorous nature of Melonhead and Sam's investigation is sure to be a hit among middle-grade readers."--School Library Journal
  • "Life continues hilariously on . . . as middle-grader Melonhead attempts to make it through his summer. . . while following new "Guidelines for Life." This family doctrine . . . sees him and his best friend Sam through good old-fashioned adventures all over Washington D.C. Illustrated with expressive ink spot art."--Booklist
  • "Melonhead's pure, kid-centric, fun-loving perspective is hard to resist. As they learn to take responsibility for their mini-fiascoes, Melonhead and Sam deliver sniggers galore in this sweet and funky confection."--Kirkus Reviews
