Top Secret

I am a huge fan of spy movies, novels and TV shows. Espionage, danger, double agents, inventive gadgets and all the usual ‘spy’ goodies make for thrilling stories.

But like most things literary  fictional spying has its roots in reality.

Spies and secret agents have been around since the dawn of civilization. Their missions: gather information, plant false information, assassination and covert activities. Both men and women have been spies.

In Top Secret The Book Of Spies And Agents by Soledad Romero Marino and Julio Antonio Blasco and publisher Little Gestalten, Kids follow spies and agents as they enter the dark world of espionage where deception and death go hand-in-hand.

Inside this large, thin, hardbound book are spotlighted accounts of spies from all over the world throughout history.

Children learn about their tactics, tools of the trade, strange alliances and their missions. Follow them as they decipher forbidden codes, pass along secrets and when some are discovered and ‘dealt with.”

The book is illustrated in a semi-realistic style in pen and ink and colored in flat hues. Discover the secret world of spies and the intrigue, danger and thrills it all entails.

Psalms 34:4 - I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
