Review # 1 was written on 2007-09-03 00:00:00 Patricia Holmes Over the Labor Day holiday we checked out three Commander Toad books from our local library for the trip down to South Pasadena. Commander Toad and the Intergalactic Spy is one of that set. The Space Toad is sent on its most dangerous mission, the rescue of super spy Tip Toad, a master of disguise who happens to be Commander Toad's cousin. It is up to Commander Toad to identify his cousin as he's sure to be in disguise. The crew can't afford to bring on board an enemy spy! After a few hiccups in their search, Commander Toad comes up with a brilliant test to put all the spies through. Only his cousin will be able to pass it. Does he find the right spy?

Review # 2 was written on 2017-03-22 00:00:00 Daniel P. Ruble Yolen, Jane. Commander Toad and the Intergalactic Spy. New York: Penguin Putman, 1997 Recommended for First Graders Genre: Science Fiction This story is about Commander Toad and his crew who go on missions to discover planets and explore galaxies in their green space ship called Star Warts. One day they are commanded by Star Fleet to go on a dangerous mission to pick up an intergalactic spy who goes by the name of Agent 007 ½. But this is no ordinary spy. He is space Fleet's greatest spy, and a master of disguise. Commander Toad is excited. Agent 007 ½ is his cousin, and he is confident that he will recognize his cousin even if he is wearing a disguise. The crew heads to Eden, a planet full of red, orange, yellow and pink flowers. Spies from all over the galaxy are on Eden to learn secrets from each other. Commander Toad and his crew must be careful not to pick up the wrong spy to bring on board the ship. That would be dangerous. When Star Warts lands on Eden, a monster approaches the crew. Lieutenant Lily aims her gun at the monster, but it calls out, "Hi Cousin Hip." Commander Toad yells, "Lily, do not shoot. That monster is my cousin." Suddenly three similar monsters approach the crew, all claiming to be Cousin Hip. Lieutenant Lily is confused. Monsters keep coming towards the crew, all denouncing the others and claiming to be the real Cousin Hip. Poor Commander Toad is toadally overwhelmed, while the hoppy little toads lie back in the flowers sipping Croak-a-Cola. Who is the real Agent 007 ½? Will Commander Toad and his crew solve this dilemma? Will Commander Toad recognize his own cousin? You will have to read the book to find out. This is a fun and totally amusing book. Children will enjoy the play on words. The toads trick the crew, and kids will be delighted to help to solve the mystery of who the real Agent 007 ½ is. The plot is simple, and the action moves quickly. A very easy read
