This is the true story of James Lafayette, a slave who spied for George Washington's army during the American Revolution. But while America celebrated its newfound freedom, James returned to slavery. His service hadn't qualified him for the release he'd been hoping for. For James the fight wasn't over; he'd already helped his country gain its freedom, now it was time to win his own.… (més)

I love how well this telling captures the courage of this enslaved hero who took huge risks to spy on the British.

Lots of full page, realistic illustrations, but the narrative seemed lacking.

Summary:
The story tells about how the American Revolution started why it started. It tells about how James was a slave who wanted to be free so he decided to join the fighting in the war in hopes of being freed when it was over. James was asked to be a spy for the Europeans, and if it wasn't for James, then we wouldn't have won the war. In the end, James was freed as a slave.

Personal Reaction:
It really amazes me how things were back in the day. A lot of things happened for us to have the world that we live in today. People risked their lives for others to be free. James had a lot of courage that I don't like a lot of people in today's world would have.

Classroom Ideas:
1. Teach the students what happened to James after he was freed.
2. Give the students more information about the American Revolution that the book did not tell.
3. Show the students the Declaration of Independence and tell them why it is so important to us today.

Rockwell, Anne. A Spy Called James. 1 CD. unabridged. 14 min. Dreamscape Media. ISBN. 9781520066172.
The true story of James Lafayette, a revolutionary double agent will captivate and anger young listeners as they learn about the incredible dangers that James, an American slave, took while trying to secure America's freedom from the British as well as earning his own from his slave masters. At great danger to himself James became a spy for both the British and the American armies and played a pivotal role in helping win some major battles and ultimately the war. Realizing too late that freedom was only promised to enslaved soldiers not spies, James had to fight to free himself from the very people he just helped win their own independence. Captivatingly narrated by Rodney Gardiner, the audiobook also includes a page turn track. Perfect for young readers wanting to know more about the Revolutionary War and African American History - Erin Cataldi, Johnson Co. Public Library, Franklin, IN ( )
