In the tradition of Hidden Figures and The Girls of Atomic City,
Code Girls is the amazing true story of the young American women
who cracked German and Japanese military codes during World War II.
More than ten thousand women served as codebreakers during World
War II, recruited by the U.S. Army and Navy. While their brothers
and boyfriends took up arms, these women moved to the nation's
capital to learn the top secret art of code breaking. Through their
work, the code girls helped save countless lives and were vital in
ending the war. But due to the top secret nature of their
accomplishments, these women have never been able to talk about
their story--until now. Through dazzling research and countless
interviews with the surviving code girls, Liza Mundy brings their
story to life with zeal, grace, and passion. Abridged and adapted
for a middle grade audience, Code Girls brings this important story
to young readers for the first time, showcasing this vital story of
American courage, service, and scientific accomplishment.
