Harriet Spies Again by Helen Ericson (YA)
This is a companion novel to the children's classic book, Harriet the Spy, and continues Harriet's story. Ericson stays true to the original writing style and character development. Harriet is still a quirky young detective, about to turn 12 and trying to figure out the mysteries around her. Ole Golly, her nanny of sorts, has returned to New York and Harriet feels there is more to that story than she has been told. Thanksgiving arrives and Harriet has set things up to try to solve all of the mysteries.
Reading this book was like visiting a childhood friend. Harriet's voice was the same. It was a good, quick read.
I've read the first Harriet and enjoyed it. I didn't realize there was a second.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize it either until a fellow teacher at school showed it to me...so of course, I had to borrow it when she was done with it!
