Reviews for Spies in the Civil War for Kids

Dan Lewer is an expert teacher and wrote his book, Spies in the Civil War for Kids, masterfully. It is accessible for middle school readers and does not shy away from talking to them, in a developmentally appropriate way, about the hard history behind the Civil War. It gives attention to those whose history is given less attention in the triumphs of history, especially women and the enslaved. --CherylAnne Amendola, history teacher Dan Lewer's a master storyteller who brings to life the everyday people upon whom the fate of our nation depended during our darkest hour. He reaffirms my faith that great stories--and teachers like Dan--can change the world. --Dr. Glen Coleman, HP Teaching Fellow, social studies teacher, and author of 100 or Nothing: Reimagining Success in the Classroom
