Thank you to the publishers for this wonderful early review copy.
We all know Holly Webb is a great children’s writer so obviously I started this with high expectations and it absolutely lived up to them!
Now I was never a Girl Guide, so I have no badges…
Also I had no idea that Girl Guides had been used in the First World War as messengers for MI5! This is an exciting new fact!
So you see even when you are old reading a children’s book you can still learn many things.
The pace, tension and plotting in this are utterly superb.
You get a perfect sense of time and place too.
The characters are begging to be a long running series, don’t be giving me anything less than say 5 or 7 books please.
This book is perfect for anyone age 7 to well over 107.
Whether you are a child, a teacher, a parent or whoever this book will engage you.
Every school or home library needs this book. Think of all the discussions you could have.
Totally recommended, now please publishers send me book 2.
