Les Espions Bilingues
A group of bilingual 6th graders begin studying at a prestigious French school, but soon realize that their scholarships are not for their musical or athletic talent, but rather for their potential as spies. Will the spy skills they learn be enough for them to thwart the kidnapping of French teen singing sensation, Capucine?
“A great story with a surprising turn,and an interesting end for the characters!”
- René H., age 12, Franco-American
“I really enjoyed reading this book.
Reading in both languages felt weird but in a good way. It felt funny, but also normal.
I thought it was interesting to learn some spy techniques. The only thing that disappointed me is that there is no book 2 (yet!).”
- Suzanne Gury, age 12, Franco-American
