* Reviews *
This series will entice even the most reluctant reader. Students learn about spies and espionage, technology, and gadgets, plus several of the titles include biographies of famous and not-so-famous people in the world of spies. The books all include a one-page discussion of a career specifically covered in the book. Callout boxes and sidebars might cause less focused readers to wander, though the colors and simple sentence structure will enable lower level readers to enjoy the work while older readers will benefit from the in-depth information sprinkled throughout. Photographs, illustrations, and some activities make these books valuable additions to elementary and middle school libraries for history technology, and career sections. Bibliography. Glossary.
