Add a CommentOne of my all-time favorites from childhood. Even better to re-read in adulthood.
sooooooooooo boring poorly written and dull . but "Harriet Spys Again" the companion novel is much better
This is a really good book. It is funny and suspenseful.
Ah, to own a notebook where you write down all your thoughts and observations of the people you know. Delicious! No wonder Harriet appeals to us. If only we all could be so brave.
One of my favourite stories about the trials and tribulations of growing up. Precocious and somewhat eccentric Harriet records all her observations about others in her notebooks, hoping one day to become a real writer. Along the way, she loses the most important person in her life, insults her friends, and emotionally regresses. In the end, Harriet learns a great lesson in empathy. Published in the sixties, this is one of those timeless tales with enduring value. Suitable for both boys and girls in the 9-12 year old range as a read-aloud, read-alone or audiobook. I'd like to make this one mandatory for all (including parents).
