The Spy who Loved School Dinners Quotes

“threw a tartan sock at Dad and walked away.”

“So I asked Granddad if he had ever seen a spy that was our age before, and he said, “No, don’t think so. But now that you mention it, that WOULD be a good disguise!” So Zach said, “Do you think a spy that was really old, like you, could make themselves look young, like us?” And Granddad said, “Definitely. Those spies can do anything.” And then Granddad stared at each one of us, and his eyes went really small, and then he said, “I wouldn’t be surprised if SHE was an old spy girl herself!” and he pointed at Jodi. So Jodi explained how she wasn’t a spy, actually, and that she was just taking all the notes to make sure we didn’t forget everything. And that it was hard because I was talking too fast. And then Granddad said, “And that’s EXACTLY what a spy would say!”
