The Bicycle Spy is a really good book. It has many details to describe things so I can imagine what is happening.

Marcel, a young bicycle enthusiast, lives in France during World War Two. He is asked to deliver a loaf of bread to his relatives, but soon finds out it is not just for the bread. His parents are part of the resistance, which means they help Jews escape from the nazis. A few days later a mysterious new student comes to school, and she lives to bike just like marcel. They are good friends, but something he doesn’t know can tear their relationship apart. I loved this book, and it always had me at the edge of my seat. I love learning about this time period, and I think the author did a great job!
I read this book this is a good adventure in the middle of town, good friendship, and no bad scenes, just some that are a bit scary.
I think that this book is REALLY awesome. It is very interesting and has you gripped until the very last word. I would recommend this book to anyone and every one if you are looking for a good book. There is never a boring moment in this entire book. 10 out of 101
