FROM THE PUBLISHER
When Harriet Welsch grows up, she wants to be an author. So, she figures it's a good way to practice for her future vocation by writing down everything she sees on her spy route in a secret notebook. You can imagine her horror when the secret notebook is confiscated by her classmates and read aloud! Now Harriet's knee-deep in trouble as the tables are turned on her.

Wonderful book for teens. There is a few things that pertain to the female body maturing that made it a bit awkward for me while reading to ALL of my children but other than that, it is a sweet coming of age book.
