Description:

Eleven-year-old Harriet M. Welsch wants to be a writer, so she practises by spying. Every day after school she follows her spy route around her New York neighbourhood, peeking at people and writing down everything she sees in her secret notebook. She also writes very honest thoughts about her classmates and friends. Then one day the notebook falls into the wrong hands, and her friends read every word. Suddenly Harriet is all alone. A funny, honest classic about friendship, growing up and learning that the truth sometimes needs a little kindness.
