About the Book

Dozens of children respond to this peculiar ad in the newspaper and are then put through a series of mind-bending tests, which readers take along with them. Only four children-two boys and two girls-succeed. Their challenge: to go on a secret mission that only the most intelligent and inventive children could complete. To accomplish it they will have to go undercover at the Learning Institute for the Very Enlightened, where the only rule is that there are no rules. But what they'll find in the hidden underground tunnels of the school is more than your average school supplies. So, if you're gifted, creative, or happen to know Morse Code, they could probably use your help.

Review :
"Begins with a bang... resembles the otherwordly experience of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory."--Publishers Weekly, starred review "Dashes of mild humor and introspection rest on a solid base of suspense, mystery, and well-rounded characters, making this a satisfying dish for readers of varying tastes."--The Bulletin, starred review "Do not miss this one. Buy two copies because they will be needed."--VOYA "Fans of Roald Dahl or Blue Balliett will find a familiar blend of kid power, clues, and adventure."--School Library Journal, starred review "Great cast of characters, lots of cool puzzles and mysteries. This book reminded me of some of the better children's books I grew up with, like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and The Phantom Tollbooth."--Rick Riordan "Real flashlight under the bedclothes material... this story flies past, thrilling us as it goes."--Horn Book "Tackles personal concerns: abandonment, family, loyalty, and facing one's fears."--Booklist, starred review
