Artemis Fowl's confidential files have been discovered in his safe at Fowl Manor. Ever since his first contact with the fairy People, he has kept a locked dossier. Now, you too can share the secrets: There are two fabulous stories: "LEPrecon" - This is the story of Captain Holly Short's move from Traffic to Recon, and how she became the first female officer to serve under Commander Julius Root. "The Seventh Dwarf" - This is the World Book day story, featuring Artemis, Butler,Holly, and everyone's favourite kleptomaniac dwarf, Mulch Diggums. There are exclusive interviews with major characters including: Artemis, Holly, Foaly, Mulch and Eoin Colfer himself. There is a top secret coded extract from the Fairy Book for you to translate. There is a fascinating Fairy-spotters section - could you tell a troll from a goblin? There are confidential technical diagrams of Foaly's top inventions, and much more.

About the Author:

Eoin Colfer followed his parents into teaching and soon began to invent stories for his pupils. His first novel, BENNY AND OMER, was a bestseller in Ireland - like ARTEMIS FOWL, it was written after a day's teaching and after his young son's bedtime. Eoin lives in Wexford, Ireland. ARTEMIS FOWL was shortlisted for the Whitbread Children's Book of the Year and won the WHSmith Children's Book of the Year Award.

From School Library Journal:

Grade 5-8–No, this is not a sequel to the previous titles; it's a companion book. It includes two original short stories, one a prequel to Artemis Fowl (the first) about Captain Holly Short and how she became a member of the LEP, and the other a story about Artemis looking for the Fei Fei Tiara (Seventh Dwarf). In it, readers see Mulch working with Artemis for the first time. There are also games; readers can practice fairy code, learn the gnomish alphabet, do a crossword puzzle or a find-a-word (the latter may cause problems in libraries). Finally, they can read interviews with Artemis, Captain Short, Butler, Mulch Diggums, Foaly, Commander Root, and the author. With the write-in caveat in mind, this volume will give all of those Fowler fans something to read while waiting for the next book.–Saleena L.
