If you solved the LEET code above, consider yourself a code buster! And if you’re a middle grade reader, you’re probably already aware of Penny Warner’s award-winning Code Busters Club mystery series.

 

Now that Penny’s joined forces with Laurie McLean, a founding agent and partner at Fuse Literary, we hope that soon a new series will be coming your way: Ghost Magic! It’s got plenty of STEM and plenty of magic tricks to keep everyone entertained.

 

“I love codes! In fourth and fifth grade I learned how to Sign, tap Morse code, write in Pigpen code, and speak Pig Latin,” Penny said. She has traveled the world busting codes and sharing the secrets of the Code Busters Club.

 

With more than 60 fiction, nonfiction and kidlit books published in her career so far, Penny is a three-time Agatha mystery award winner, a Macavity award winner, as well as a nominee for Anthony and Agatha awards. She even wrote the Official Nancy Drew Handbook, proving she was a sleuth from a young age.

 

She taught college-level child development for more than 30 years, and now she and her husband cross the country creating fund-raising murder mystery events for libraries. What a life!

 

Laurie’s job is to sell Ghost Magic and future Code Busters Club middle grade mystery books to some lucky publisher.
