Winter, Jonah The Secret Project, illustrated by Jeanette
Winter. PICTURE BOOK. Beach Lane (Simon), 2017. $18.
One day in 1943, a private boys’ school in the New Mexico
desert was told to vacate their building.
In their place a secret group of men and the people who supported them
worked on something called the Gadget – racing to complete their invention
before their enemies did.
What an interesting topic for a picture book. I will have to ask my elementary teacher
friends if this is taught at that level.
I can only see it being useful for high school, really, as a
starter. I’d love to hear from the
authors about their motivation for this topic in this format.
HS – OPTIONAL.
