Prepare to go undercover and enter a world of secret missions, covert operations and classified information. Explore the history of espionage from ancient secret agents to modern-day surveillance, and read about the lives of infamous spies and their missions. Learn the language of spies and how to read codes and ciphers, then ask yourself the all-important question - could you be a spy? An exploration of a hugely popular subject by the author of the best-selling ' Horrible Geography series.
Anita Ganeri is an award-winning author of children' s information books, including the best-selling ' Horrible Geography' series (Scholastic Children' s Book). In 2009, she won the Blue Peter Best Book with Facts Award for the title ' Planet in Peril' . She loved researching and writing ' Secrets and Spies' , although she doesn' t think that the world of espionage is really for her, as she' d probably get her aliases mixed up. Adopting a narrative-driven style, award winning illustrator Luke Brookes' extensive portfolio has developed from a love for telling stories. His use of dramatic lighting and a restricted colour palette gives rise to vivid, graphic compositions that boast an atmospheric and energetic aesthetic. Luke lives in a small market town in Staffordshire, with his wife Becky, 2 boys, George and Henry and his scruffy dog Rufus.
