Found (Reviewed by Amir)

Title: Found

By: Margaret Peterson Haddix

I was not abandoned, I was sent!

I give this book a thumbs up because it has very interesting story line. It has a particular idea, a hope to find the writer of the threatening notes that could lead them to their true identity. The characters, Jonah the smart one, and also the one who is has positive outlook. Katherine, Jonah's sister, she is always looking to find the right answers, and Chip is determined that he will find his birth parents one day.

This book is a mystery. The book is about a plane that lands at the airport, the workers have no idea why the plane landed there, and they sent a girl named Angela to investigate the plane. Once she gets into the plane she notices that every one including the pilot and the crewmembers are gone and each seat is filled with babies. Some year’s later two boys named Jonah and Chip, start getting threatening letters in the mail. Jonah, Chip and Katherine, Jonah's sister, believe that these letters could be related to Jonah and Chip's adaptation. FBI gets involved in solving this case and helps them with their investigation. Would they ever know, who wrote the notes? Who are their biological parents? Were they part of the baby shipment? You need to read this book and book after this to find out the answer.

Now for some strengths and weaknesses. At the end of the book still not clear how the story ends and it keeps you hanging and forces you to have to get the next book and read it. The book starts out fast by giving the problem in the prologue. This book has a great plot, finding the note writers, not knowing who your birth parents are; all together it makes it to a very interesting read. The story has a great storyline and many great suspenseful events.

I recommend this book to 5th - 7th graders because it is very suspenseful and has a complicated plot that might not be easy for younger readers to follow. I especially recommend this book to the boys because it's filled with action and mystery.
