The Secret's Out! New Enslow Series Explores Spy World's Heroes, Villains, and Gadgets

Young readers delight in discovering spying's concealed arts and unpublicized actions. New titles on the subject are often among a library's most popular choices, especially among "reluctant readers." Bringing a fresh perspective to the subject, Enslow Publishers's new series "The Secret World of Spies" examines this intriguing world, from its human "assets" to technology even Jason Bourne in The Bourne Identity could not have imagined. Author Susan K. Mitchell's Guided Reading Level "Q" text brings a lively point of view to this engaging subject. Each 48-page book includes excellent design support, including useful "pull-outs". Fun illustrations help bring alive an elliptical world often shrouded in mystery and misinformation.

Get the straight story on spying's world in Enslow's six-book series! Each title is available in paperback for $7.95. A library-bound edition of each book is available for $17.95 (a 25% school/library discount from Enslow's list price.)

Enslow Series Explores The Secret World of Spies

If truth is indeed stranger than fiction, then nowhere is it stranger than in the secret world of spies. Contemporary spying embraces high-tech gadgetry, computer-driven cryptology, bureaucratic empires, and action resembling The Bourne Identity and James Bond 007 adventures. There's also the more mundane, but far more common, spying generated from agents or "human assets" in which envy, greed, lust, and other very human emotions play central roles.

Enslow's "The Secret World of Spies" series explores this fascinating, shadowy world where cool analysis mixes with cloak-and-dagger escapades. Author Susan K. Mitchell's six-title ensesmble offers a page-turning, age-appropriate look at different aspects of spying. Each 48-page book, in addition to its exciting text and full-color illustrations, provides useful references for further research.

All books in this new, Fall 2011 series is available in paperback for $7.95. Library-bound editions are also available at the school/library discount price of $17.95.
