By Susan K. Mitchell

Did a family of four, including a six-year-old boy, spy on the U.S. military at Pearl Harbor during World War II? Is it possible that pigeons and mice could be used as spies?

Reviews

". . . these titles provide abundant information for young intelligence gatherers."

The Horn Book Guide, Spring 2012

"Mitchell has done the secret world of espionage justice with these titles . . . Easy-to-read, informative titles."

School Library Journal, March 2012

"As Mitchell points out in this fascinating look at spies, the secretive world of espionage has affected events in many ways. This is a well written and engaging book that tells the often little known story of spies and the causes they served."
