Code Girls: Young Readers Edition: The True Story of the American Women Who Secretly Broke Codes in World War II
(4)
YA
Adapted by Laurie Calkhoven.
This teen adaptation of Mundy's adult book reveals the largely untold story of thousands of talented young women recruited to work as code breakers during WWII. While it's difficult to follow the large cast of characters--and the highly technical explanations of the code-breaking process--the women's unique opportunity and subsequent achievements are fascinating, inspiring examples of unsung heroism. Reading list, timeline, websites. Bib., glos., ind.
