Ginny must follow the directions in each envelope step by step. The envelopes take Ginny from her small hometown in 13 Little Blue Envelopes is an exciting and stimulating book with a powerful message. The message of this story is to always experience life to the fullest, because at any moment it could be gone.

Luke is a third child, which means he can’t be seen by anyone except his family members. The setting of the book is in the future, when you can’t have more than two children, because the government thinks there isn’t going to be enough food for everyone to eat. Luke isn’t allowed to do much. He used to be able to go outside, until the government bought the land next to his house to build houses. That means he can’t go outside anymore, because he can’t be seen by anyone. Then one day, when no one was home he looked out the vent and saw a girl. He didn’t think much of it, only that she could be a third child to! Days went pass and Luke finally got the courage to see her. Jen the other third child, opens and whole different world for Luke, until a knock on the door yelling “OPEN UP, THIS IS THE POPUALTION POLICE.” Among the Hidden made me think about the earth, and how every day it’s could be rotting away, because of or polluting and waste of food. It keeps you hanging on the edge because your excited to hear what’s next, In the book. Your not really sure what’s going to happen. Every chapter is exciting, Its doesn’t bore you. If your looking for an exciting book Among the Hidden would be the book to read. After I read the book I wanted to read the next one and the one after that! Among the Hidden is a series book. The book your reading about is book one. This book is a very good book. I would recommend this book to a person who loves mystery and suspension. I wouldn’t recommend this book to people who worry too much about the environment, it might scare them. Among the Hidden is one of the best books I have ever read! Book Title: Among the Hidden Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix Reviewer: Conor B Summary: In this book Among The Hidden there is a character named Luke who is a third child in a family of 3 Children. There is a law saying that families could not have more than 3 children. This law is called the population law. Luke is the 3rd child in his family so he has to hide for his life. Not until he spots a girl named Jennifer Rose Talbot. She is a third child too. Jen gets more freedom than Luke. Once Luke meets Jen, she said that she was his ticket out meaning she will help him from stop hiding and get a lot more freedom. So Jen does help Luke out but they get into a lot of trouble. This book is very interesting and will wake you up the moment you read it. It will interest you a lot if you are a person who likes to read mysteries and other good books on the life of people. This book made me feel if I was the actual character in the book Book Title: Among the Hidden Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix Reviewer: Justine M Summary: Would you want to stay hidden all your life?!? I know I wouldn’t! This story is about a boy named Luke who lives in a time where the law says that parents can have no more than 2 children, which in Luke’s case is a very bad thing because he is a third child For me the book was an amazing adventure. It was a suspenseful, nail biting, keep you on the edge of your seat, can’t wait to read more kind of book. I loved this book. It was the most interesting book I have read in a long time. Book Title: Among the Hidden Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix Reviewer: Keijon W Summary: Among the hidden is a book and is about two shadow children and they have to hide from the population police because the law was that you can only have two children. Some mothers had three children and they had to hide their third child. The third child couldn’t go to school or go out side because if they did they would have go to jail or get killed by the population police. I like this book because it is scary and it excites you and makes you want to know more and more about the book and the author should keep writing more among the hidden books because I really liked the first one that the author wrote. The book made me feel good and excited me because it had a lot of feeling and meaning about the government and about how the government can be unfair about things in the enviorment. The book made me feel like I wanted to know more and more about the book because once I got into the book I didn’t want to get out I just wanted to read more and more. The book is a really good book and I like it even though I don’t like a lot of books but that book had me going until the class finished it. I think that the teachers and students should read among the hidden because the book had me going and going. The book was really good I liked it and it would be good for students who didn’t read it and students who want to know about it and for summer reading. Book Title: Among the Hidden Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix Reviewer: Kristen M Summary: Among the Hidden is a book about shadow children and how they have to hide there identity and never be seen ever. A 12 year old boy named Luke is a 3rd child and their government does not allow more than two children, so Luke has to hide. Luke has never seen or spoken to anyone else except his mother, his father, and his two brothers Mathew and Mark. If Luke had been caught by the government which are the population police Luke would be killed. This book is very interesting and changed the way I look at life on how some people have different lifestyles and how other people live, and how people are less fortunate and have less money than others and how people have different acceptions. I agree with the message of freedom the author was explaining because everyone should be free and share their feelings with other people, and meet new people everyday without fake id’s and getting killed. The book to me meant freedom and bravery and trying your hardest to accomplish things you never thought possible. This somehow meant a lot to me. It just shows that if you really want something you got to believe in yourself and fight for it not just sit there and do nothing. I recommend this book to any 11-16 year olds because they probably know how bad it is to have to hide and how less fortunate people are or can turn out to be, and how sometimes in life you have to do something to save your life. Book Title: Among the Hidden Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix Reviewer: Maddy S Summary: Have you ever played Hide and Go Seek? Well try playing it your whole life. In the book Among the Hidden, that’s exactly what Luke had to do, without anyone trying to find him. In that time period women were not allowed to have more then two children. Unfortunately Luke had two brothers already (Matthew and Mark).It wasn’t all that bad, he could go outside; he just couldn’t leave the yard because he was surrounded by trees. But, the government cut down the trees and now Luke has to hide in the house. With this happening, Luke found another third child by the name of Jenifer or Jen.Then his real adventure begins. I recommend this book to kids 10-14 100%. It is thrilling and will leave you wanting to read this book all the time. Also Margret Peterson Haddix as written a whole entire series. It takes you through Luke’s life and adventures. If you are a third child you should think about how living in this time would affect your life.

Book Title: Among the Hidden Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix Reviewer: Stephen M Summary: Among the Hidden was about a child named Luke that is a shadow child and always has to hide. Luck is a third child and in that time period you were only aloud two children or it is illegal. Luke met a girl named Jen those are the two main characters. Jen is also a third child. Her dad is a baron. Luke is not allowed to leave the house but he wants to see Jen. Do you think he is going to go over? Do you think Jen is going to appreciate him? For me the book was intense. What I mean by that is it was heart pounding. It is like you are him and your trying to get some were when you are not aloud to leave your house. The book was slow in the beginning until it got farther in to the story it got very good. Yes I recommend to every one that likes books in a series. There are 7 in the books series Among the Hidden. I also recommend this book to anyone.
