{"product_id":"the-explorers-the-door-in-the-alley","title":"The Explorers: The Door in the Alley","description":"\u003cp\u003eFeaturing 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.   Knock once if you can find it—but only members are allowed inside. This is one of those stories that starts with a pig in a teeny hat. It’s not the one you’re thinking about. (This story is way better than that one.) 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! Don’t miss the sequel: The Explorers: The Reckless Rescue. And it’s 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.  “[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 “Exhilarating. . . . Fans of a Series of Unfortunate Events will be drawn to this.” —Booklist “A rollicking read, full of derring-do and old-fashioned villainy.” —School Library Journal “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 “Narrated with a smart, brisk tone and plenty of snark . . . The Door in the Alley packs plenty of twists, turns and danger.” —Shelf Awareness\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 133 x 194 x 22\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor: Adrienne Kress\u003cbr\u003e\nISBN: 9781101940082\u003cbr\u003e\nFormat: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 336\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"bookhero.ae","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46924307562649,"sku":"16RA-1-9781101940082","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AED","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0580\/5696\/6297\/files\/69d3923c418a0_The_Explorers_The_Door_in_the_Alley.jpg?v=1775488937","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.ae\/products\/the-explorers-the-door-in-the-alley","provider":"Dubai - Buy Used\/Second-Hand Books - BookHero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
