The Reluctant Spy by Lois Wickstrom

 

The Reluctant SpyThe Reluctant Spy by Lois June Wickstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This was a fun read about a boy named Timothy who finds a rat under his bed. He's afraid of his grandmother finding it and screaming so he's doing everything he can to get it out of the house. Grandma already knows about the rat though and she's telling Timothy how this is a special rat. Hildegard is going to take them on adventures and help solve a mystery plaguing the community.

This is a longer read by this author. An emerging chapter reader could easily follow along with this book. There are a few German words scattered throughout, which is a great way to garner interest in a new language. True to this author's style, there are also STEM components in this story.

Overall, a great read that I recommend!
