The League of Unexceptional Children: The Kids Who Knew Too Little
Description
The final book in a smart, funny, and exceptional middle grade series about unexceptionals from School of Fear author Gitty Daneshvari!
Since being recruited by the League of Unexceptional Children, Jonathan Murray and Shelley Brown have rescued the vice president and stopped the outbreak of a virus capable of dimming human intelligence. Against all odds, these totally average spies have somehow managed to save the day…twice.
Now Jonathan’s parents have been arrested by the CIA for treason, and liberating them means going head-to-head with a secret organization so powerful it has literally changed the course of history. It’s Jonathan and Shelley’s most dangerous mission yet, and one that will decide their fate as members of the League. Will they be able to accidentally sort of save the day one last time?

"Pokes sly fun at the pressure to raise future valedictorians and CEOs, by turning the tables on the classic trope of an average kid discovering greatness...Daneshvari's fast-paced, twisty story is chock-full of clever humor."
—Publishers Weekly
"This...amusing chapter book goes down easy. Even with the fate of the world resting on their 'slightly hunched' shoulders, the main characters are so disarmingly upfront about their inadequacies that they'll definitely have readers on their side."
—Booklist
"Keeps readers giggling."
—SLJ
"It will hook readers and have them anxiously awaiting the next adventure."
—School Library Connection
