Ariel Bradley, Spy For General Washington is written by Lynda
Durrant.
This is a well written and easy to understand book about a
boy during the Revolutionary War. The
book tells the story of Ariel Bradley and how he went on a spy mission for
General Washington. His mission was to
report back to General Washington what he saw at the British camp. General Washington needed information about
the number of troops and the condition of their horses. This information would help him as he
prepared for battle against them.
I gave this book 5/5 stars.
I liked the illustrations. They
were simple yet effective. I also was
thankful for the glossary at the end of the book that listed some of the words
in the book that may not be familiar for the young reader. There were words like icehouse, British
redcoats and tri-corned hat. The story
itself has a bit of suspense which will make it enjoyable for all children to
read. I would recommend this book for
any child who is interested in history, adventure or just looking for an easy
to read chapter book.
I would like to thank the publisher for the copy of this
book I enjoyed reading. I gave an honest
review based on my opinion of what I read.
