Synopsis

Harriet is not really a spy, as anyone who has read the book will know. Instead, she is a would-be author: a girl who pays close attention to everything around her and what everyone else is up to, and writes it all down in her notebook. Of course, that could mean trouble if anyone found the book, especially when Harriet's best advisor, her nanny Ole Golly, is not around to help. Excellent adaptation of the much-loved book.
