PRAISE FOR CHOOSE YOUR OWN ADVENTURE SPIES:

"In this history-inspired spin-off from the venerable Choose Your Own Adventure line, readers adopt the persona of James Armistead Lafayette, an enslaved person who becomes a spy during the American Revolution...The plots are swift and snappy, and the format, a tried-and-true gimmick that has persisted for decades, lends itself well to multiple rereads and interactivity, if not to a clear historical record." –Publishers Weekly

"For fans of Choose Your Own Adventure books, this historical drama is worth having on the shelf.” –Kirkus

"…This book will get kids excited about history." –Booklist
