Secret Agent Man Goes Shopping for Shoes by Tim Wynne-Jones - ADVISABLE

Wynne-Jones, Tim Secret Agent Man Goes Shopping for Shoes, illustrated by Brian Won.  PICTURE BOOK.  Candlewick, 2016.  $17. 

Secret Agent Man (S.A.M.) go back and forth between being a little boy and a Secret Agent.  Right now he needs new shoes. 

It’s fun to watch Sam go back and forth between being a little boy and igniting his imagination to be a secret agent.  It is, however, hard to explain in a summary.  I like that the imagination parts can be short and intertwined with ordinary events.  But you’ll have to read it yourself to see what I mean.
