nFeaturing a mysterious society, a secretive past, and a pig in a teeny hat, this is the first book in a new series for fans of The Name of This Book Is a Secret and The Mysterious Benedict Society. n n Knock once if you can find it--but only members are allowed inside. n This is one of those stories that starts with a pig in a teeny hat. Its not the one youre thinking about. (This story is way better than that one.) n n This pig-in-a-teeny-hat story is filled with adventure and danger. There are missing persons, hired thugs, a mysterious box, a hidden key, famous explorers, a risk-averse boy, and a girl on a rescue mission. Not to mention secrets that are not meant for the faint of heart. But if you are feeling bold, or maybe even a little italic, and if you enjoy derring-dos (and doing dares), this just might be the story for you n n Dont miss the sequel: The Explorers: The Reckless Rescue. And its really not a big deal, but if you find a pig in a teeny hat, please return him to the Explorers Society as soon as humanly possible. Thank you. n n A] wildly funny adventure. . . . Animals in teeny hats, Wonderland-style logic, and loads of wordplay and sarcasm will keep readers giggling all the way through. --Kirkus Reviews n n Exhilarating. . . . Fans of a Series of Unfortunate Events will be drawn to this. --Booklist n n A rollicking read, full of derring-do and old-fashioned villainy. --School Library Journal n n Funny, offbeat, and subversive . . . occasional footnotes and other humorous asides from the omniscient narrator break the fourth wall and ramp up the playfulness. --The Horn Book n n Narrated with a smart, brisk tone and plenty of snark . . . The Door in the Alley packs plenty of twists, turns and danger. --Shelf Awarenessn
