From Our Editors
Meet Harriet M. Welsch -- one of the most unforgettable, funniest characters in children's literature. Harriet is a girl with only one ambition in life: to be a spy. She works hard at it -- filling her secret notebook with observations about her parents, friends, and neighbors. But when her classmates find her notebook and read her mean comments about them, Harriet finds herself shunned by everyone. How can she put her spying talents to good use and make her friends like her again?

The first adventure of Harriet. While honing her spying skills, she manages to alienate almost everyone.

A good read for early tweens. It was entertaining. About a girl who writes notes about others in a notebook and then the notebook is found. You can read about the conclusion in the book.
