A Spy Called James: The True Story of James Lafayette, Revolutionary War Double Agent by Anne F. Rockwell, Floyd Cooper

        This would be a great book for an elementary school class to read when they study the Revolutionary war. It would let them know that there were slaves that helped form America into what it is by not only the work they had to do as slaves but also by their cunning and bravery. I enjoyed reading about James and I think kids would enjoy it as well. I also liked the illustrations, they are brightly colored and allows you to see the characters as how they would have looked then. It just really added to the overall enjoyment of reading the book.


I received this ebook as an Advanced Readers Copy through Netgalley for an honest review.
