According to The Wrap, Apple TV+ has officially given a series order to the first-ever animated series adaptation of author Louise Fitzhugh’s classic children’s novel Harriet the Spy.
Set in 1960s New York City, Harriet the Spy will follow the coming-of-age adventures of the irrepressible 11-year-old Harriet M. Welsch, who is described as a fiercely independent, adventurous, curious eleven-year-old girl.
First published in 1964, the novel was followed by two book sequels titled The Long Secret and Sport.
Rehab Entertainment’s John W. Hyde and Terissa Kelton are also executive producing along with Wendy Moss-Klein and Nancy Steingard of 2 Friends Entertainment.
