Become a Planet Agent (Planet Agents Series, Vol. 1)
A humorous book with a strong environmental message tried and tested in schools through the author’s environmental non-profit organisation. The reader is asked to join an elite task force protecting the planet, by becoming a Planet Agent and taking on a top secret mission. Baddies like Ivan Von Energythirsty, the energy vampire, as well as Gulp Watersucker, who sucks water when people are wasting it, and the intrepid Lazybones Family, are all encountered along the way and defeated by the reader.
Original and smart, with a very inventive layout and innovative illustrations, this book quickly became a bestseller in Greece.
