Media Reviews

Le Carré for ten-year-olds, this book made espionage seem like a perfectly viable profession. * Author David Nicholls in The Saturday Times *

As someone who had planned on a career in espionage from
the age of nine or so, thanks to the Knowhow Book of Spycraft
and its companion volume, the Official Spy's Handbook - it is
no exaggeration that, for years on end, these books were my
life - my heart soared as the news that our secret services are
being urged to recruit middle aged mothers.

* The Sunday Times *
From cracking secret codes and creating effective disguises to tracking and decoding signals it's a book to be kept close at hand but hidden from the unknown enemy. * Parents in Touch *
I love a book that encourages kids to be creative and The Usborne Official Spy's Handbook is just that! * The London Mummy Blog *
I remember reading this when I was a kid in the 80s with my sister and brother. We loved it, LOVED it so much! * Reader's review by ling *
