The Exposed is the twenty-seventh book in the Animorphs series, written by K.A. Applegate. It is known to have been ghostwritten by Laura Battyanyi-Weiss, although due to an editorial oversight, Battyanyi-Weiss was uncredited for this book. It is narrated by Rachel.
In this exciting book of the Animorph series the Animorphs have a huge problem: the Chee are androids and have frozen. Even worse, the Chee's holograms are off! The Animorphs have to race the clock to find a way to get the Chee's holograms on again and get them to move before humans figure out that there are androids on earth. Also, they have to hope the Yeerk slugs, another type of alien don't get their hands on the advanced technology of the Chee.
Katherine Applegate's many books include the Roscoe Riley Rules chapter book series, the picture book The Buffalo Storm, and the award-winning novel Home of the Brave. With her husband, Michael Grant, she wrote the hugely popular series Animorphs, which has sold more than 35 million copies worldwide.
Katherine was inspired to write The One and Only Ivan after reading about the true story of a captive gorilla known as Ivan, the Shopping Mall Gorilla. The real Ivan lived alone in a tiny cage for twenty-seven years at a shopping mall before being moved to Zoo Atlanta after a public outcry. He is now a beloved celebrity at the zoo, which houses the nation's largest collection of western lowland gorillas. Ivan is well known for his paintings, which he "signs" with a thumb-print.
Katherine lives in California with her husband and two children.
