The Secret School Files: Case #2 THE SUBSTITUTE FROM OUTER SPACE: Class is in session, but this substitute is out of this world!

An alien teacher. Foil hats. And a hamster that may or may not be part of an intergalactic conspiracy.

Welcome back to school… where nothing is normal anymore.

Jake Parker and his friends were just starting to recover from their last mission (you know, the one with the possible evil genius). But when a new substitute teacher named Ms. Zarnok shows up wearing moon boots and eating glue sticks like snacks, the trio realizes the weirdness isn’t over.

Armed with DIY spy gear, cereal box tech, and zero adult supervision, Jake, Mia, and Ethan dive into their most outrageous case yet—Operation: ET Educator. From glowing math symbols to suspicious lunchroom zaps, this hilarious middle-grade adventure is full of laughs, gadgets, and alien-level mystery.

Will they stop the cosmic classroom takeover before the all-school assembly turns into a launchpad? Or will they end up on another planet... or worse, in detention?

Perfect for ages 8–12 who love:

  • Funny, fast-paced stories
  • Relatable kid heroes
  • Secret missions and school chaos
  • Hamsters. In capes. Obviously.

🛸 The Secret School Files is a laugh-out-loud, top-secret series for fans of Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Spy School, and Captain Underpants.

This is Case File #2. Get ready for lift-off.
