Jonah Skidmore got a strange letter. “‘Who’s it from?” Katherine said, jostling against him knocking the letter out of his hand… There were only six words: YOU ARE ONE OF THE MISSING.”

Jonah Skidmore and his friend Chip are getting some very weird messages. After seeing these massages Jonah’s sister Katherine got very interested and want to help to solve this mystery. Finally they found out a shocking discovery, Angela Duper told them:” Thirteen years a go a plane appeared out of now here with no passengers other than thirty-six babies.” Jonah and Chip is two of babies that are from the plane!

Found, is a novel by Margaret Peterson Haddix. I recommend this book to any one that likes to solve mysteries. This book is fast paced; it kind of makes you very nervous. The characters are pretty thoughtful and self-aware. They think what might happen and what would be better. Is such an enormous book, I will give five out of five!

  1. I really want to read Found now! It sounds very intriguing and engrossing. I love the fact you used words like thoughtful, self-aware, and faced paced. It seems like a great book! I just have a few questions...

    1.) What about the book is fast paced?

    2.) What examples/ what characters are thoughtful and self aware?

    3.) What do you mean by an 'enormous book'?

    Awesome job! I'm going to check this book out ASAP.
