It's lean times at the Moone Boy household and all Martin wants is a Game Boy. If he wants a Game Boy though, he's going to have to work for it. So his imaginary friend, Sean, suggests he get a job...
After failing to find work as a stable boy, cowboy, or homeboy, the Moone boy instead becomes Boyle's main butcher boy. But Francie Feeley's Fabulous Fishatorium across the road is luring all their customers away. Convinced something fishy is afoot, Martin and Sean decide to go on an undercover mission to discover the secrets of the mysterious fish factory. But can Agent M double-O N E get to the bottom of Feeley's slippery schemes without ending up sleeping with the fishes himself?

Praise for the Moone Boy series:
"Wildly entertaining... Throughout, there are charming illustrations, as well as footnotes defining words of Irish and adolescent origin: craic (fun), gombeen (buffoon), and a gem I ve put into rotation: shifting?Irish for French kissing. The New York Times Book Review
The Moone family also deserves special recognition for their realistic portrayal of sibling fights and teen angst. For fans of the absurd and hilarious, look no further than this goofy lovechild of The Absolutely True Story of a Part-Time Indian and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. VOYA
A highly enjoyable and amusing read. The Guardian
This book is based on the television show Moone Boy, which stars Chris O Dowd and which won the 2013 International Emmy Award for Best Comedy. Part Wimpy Kid and Walter Mitty, and just this side of Peter Pan, the book is likely to be as big a success as the show. Children s Literature

Chris O'Dowd is an award-winning actor and writer from the barmy town of Boyle in Ireland. Chris did some good acting in Bridesmaids, The IT Crowd, Gulliver's Travels and Of Miceand Men. We won't mention the films where he did bad acting. He has a dog called Potato and a cat who shouts at him for no reason. He studied at University College Dublin and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. He graduated from neither. Chris created Moone Boy to get revenge on his sisters for putting make-up on him as a child. He cowrote the Sky TV series and this book with his good friend Nick Murphy, who is a lot older than Chris.
Nick V. Murphy is a writer from Kilkenny, Ireland. (The V. in his name stands for Very.) He went to Trinity College Dublin to study English and History, but spent most of his time doing theatre and running away from girls. This was where he bumped into Chris O'Dowd, who was out looking for pizza. After college, Nick focused on writing, which was the laziest career he could think of, as it could even be done while wearing pajamas. He wrote a few things for TV, then a movie called Hideaways, before co-writing a short film with Chris called Capturing Santa. The pajama-wearing pair developed this into the comedy series MooneBoy, which recently won an International Emmy for Best Comedy.
