Secrets and Spies by Anita Ganeri
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.
