My Book Review of MAX IN THE HOUSE OF SPIES, a Historical Fiction 5 Star Read, by Adam Gidwitz!

from E Train Talks: A Literacy Initiative · host Ethan Minton: Book Reviewer, Reader, and Author Interviewer!

In MAX IN THE HOUSE OF SPIES, historical fiction just reached a new level with author Adam Gidwitz’s latest, and I dare say, best book ever! Max’s life changes forever after the Nazis take over his home country of Germany, and he's forced to leave his family in a rescue Kindertransport to the UK. You'd think that was enough for one kid to endure, but Max finds himself in an entirely new action packed adventure. He's about to embark on a secret mission to rescue those he left behind! MAX IN THE HOUSE OF SPIES tackles deep and important topics, but also weaves in silly, yet poignant humor in this middle-grade masterpiece. Watch my book review of the New York Times Bestseller, MAX IN THE HOUSE OF SPIES! And be sure to check out my interview with the author, Adam Gidwitz arriving in the coming weeks!
