Harriet the spy is about a girl who is a spy and is
always carrying a notebook where she writes her secrets
and what she is investigating about.She also wants to become a
famous writer named Harriet M.Welsch.Most of all harriet loves
her nursemaid,Ole Golly.The book is long and that's what I
didn't like about the book.My favorite character was Harriet,
because she is the only one who has a dream in the book.This
book will grab your attention.If you like to investigate

Book Review: Harriet the spy--
Summary: 5 Stars
Wonderful book for teens. There is a few things that pertain to the female body maturing that made it a bit awkward for me while reading to ALL of my children but other than that, it is a sweet coming of age book.Book Review: Hattie loves Harriet the Spy
Summary: 5 Stars
Harriet the Spy is a great book. It tells you not to write mean things about people if you don't want them to find out. It is one of the best books I've ever read. Harriet likes writing in a notebook and because of that I have started writing in my own notebook. I won't write mean things about my friends, the book has taught me that. Harriet has taught me how to win back friends and how to solve problems. I recommend that everyone should read this book.Book Review: I am Ole Golly.
Summary: 5 Stars
If, like me, you find yourself on a journey to reread the beloved books of your childhood then I have a warning for you: Beware Harriet the Spy!
As a child, I loved Harriet. I identified with Harriet. Heck, sadly for me, I even looked like Harriet. I haven't picked this book up at all as an adult. I don't know what I expected to find, but it wasn't this.
I am Ole Golly. I am a childless middle aged woman who is given to reading too much and who is blessed with a limited amount of affectionate patience. Seriously. It frightened me.
And you know what? The book is quite a bit darker than I remember. Alienation, bullying, lack of opportunity, class differences, sexism-- you name it, Harriet the Spy has got it. Which isn't to say it isn't funny and true, because it is. The best books for children are often pretty dark, so I guess it shouldn't be a surprise.
Very much recommended. Certainly as a reread, at least.
Book Review: I love this book!
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like this book! I actually saw the movie first, but I still love the book. It tells the tale of something that could really happen in a sith grader's (like me) life. I even tried to spy and am still keeping a notebook. Harriet inspired me a lot because I love writing too. I recomend this book to anyone!
