STAR Academy is a 2009 comedic sci-fi children's novel by Canadian author Edward Kay, who is also the co-creator of the animated series, Jimmy Two-Shoes. The book was published in September 2009, by Random House / Doubleday Canada. (ISBN 978-0-385-66706-7)[1]

STAR Academy has been compared by some to Harry Potter[2] because of its boarding school setting and fantastical elements. However, it is distinct in that it uses science in place of magic and is essentially satirical.
