โœฆ Synopsis


Spy school, poison pens, exploding muffins, and Night Witches were all a part of World War II, but you won't learn that in your history books! Crack open secret files and read about the mysterious Ghost Army, rat bombs, and doodle bugs. Discover famous spies like the White Mouse, super-agent Garbo, and baseball player and spy, Moe Berg. Then build your own secret agent kit and create a spy code. It's all part of the true stories from the Top Secret Files of History. Take a look if you dare, but be careful! Some secrets are meant to stay hidden... *** Review "For the lover of espionage, "Top Secret Files: World War II" by Stephanie Bearce will be a great gift. This is a nonfiction book about undercover work during the War, including spies and secret missions, rat bombs, double agents, and more. Bonus: it might get the kids interested in history, too. - See more at: http://pbcommercial.com/columns-blogs/terri-schlichenmeyer/book-lover-s-holiday-gift-guide#sthash.VViDeOaf.dpuf" - Bookworm Sez "A great, enjoyable book on spies, missions, secret agents, and even secret armies...nonfiction action and adventure on several secret agents, such as Moe Berg, Nancy Wake, and Ian Fleming, the author of James Bond; secret missions like Operation Mincemeat and Operation Dynamo; and discontinued or unused weapons! You'll find them all in this awesome book." - Creative Kids Magazine "Stephanie Bearce has culled some of the more interesting aspects of wartime secrets and put them together in this small, but very interesting book...Scattered throughout each chapter are sidebars of even more interesting information or facts that will intrigue readers, such as how Ian Fleming came up with the name James Bond for his famous agent 007.
