Battle of the Books Review: Found

 Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix

Found is a great book. Jonah Skidmore is adopted. When he starts receiving weird letters that make no sense, he wonders if it has something to do with his adoption. His wondering gets him, his younger sister Katherine, and his best friend Chip Winston involved in a crazy adventure. I really liked reading this book.

Jonah Skidmore is an average kid. He is adopted, but his family is his family: quirky, annoying, and loving. Everything about Jonah's life is normal until, one day he receives a mysterious note in the mail: "You are one of the missing." Six words that change his life. Jonah looks deeper and finds that his new neighbor, Chip (who is also adopted), is also receiving anonymous notes. Jonah, with help from his loyal sister, Katherine, and his new friend, Chip, now must look back to his past to figure out what it means to be one of the missing.

This book was very good. Haddix has unique ideas about time traveling and they are really cool. I also think it’s cool how everybody moves to the same place to be sent to the cave. The sequel to this book is really good too.
