“In Revolutionary times, spies sent secret messages in clever ways. In this true story, John Darragh, a teenaged spy from a Quaker family, carries a message to General Washington sewn inside his coat buttons..Young historians will appreciate the accompanying book’s simple but evocative watercolor illustrations and the production’s background music, including the fifes and drums of a revolutionary band. They’ll enjoy the story’s plentiful dialogue as gruff soldiers, family members, and even General Washington himself make this story vivid for young history buffs.” -AudioFile
