Customer Reviews

Hooray!

I got the "Good Spy Guide: Secret Messages" a few years ago and was always looking for another book to go along with it. One day I was looking at the book, and there it was on the back: the name of this book! This book rating also said 4-8 years of age; I'm 12 and still like it.

great

This is the best spy book I know. This book explains stuff from ciphers to how to make a fake scar!! I love this book. I recemend it to all wannabe spys.

Great for Kids

I also had this book as a child, and I loved it! I've been looking for another copy for years. It's like "The Art of War" to an 8 year old.

A whole whack of ideas packed in this updated classic

I had this book as a child (late 1970's) ...it is now updated and revised but it was one my most favourite book besides Harriet the Spy. This book taught me how to "spy" even better than Harriet! Wow, its still in print! Doesn't that tell you something? The one thing that stands out in my mind is the different code kits you could make...oh! and writing with lemon juice! oh yeah! and how to make your skin look "old" and wrinkly... kind of like me now...ironic isn't it?
