This Book Has Espionage, Suspense, and a Whole Lot of Heart!
Join us for the thrilling middle grade launch of Max in the House of Spies by ADAM GIDWITZ! What do you do when you're sent away from home and desperate to return? Why, become a British Spy, of course! Adam will be in conversation with STEVE SHEINKIN, author of Impossible Escape: A True Story of Survival and Heroism in Nazi Europe.
In Max in the House of Spies, Max Bretzfeld doesn’t want to move to London. Leaving home is hard and Max is alone for the first time in his life. But not for long. Max is surprised to discover that he’s been joined by two unexpected traveling companions, one on each shoulder, a kobold and a dybbuk named Berg and Stein. Germany is becoming more and more dangerous for Jewish families, but Max is determined to find a way back home, and back to his parents. He has a plan to return to Berlin. It merely involves accomplishing the impossible: becoming a British spy.
