highly recommended

No one ever really paid close attention to the faces of the missing children on the milk cartons. But as Janie Johnson glanced at the face of the ordinary little girl with her hair in tight pigtails, wearing a dress with a narrow white collar--a three-year-old who had been kidnapped twelve years before from a shopping mall in New Jersey--she felt overcome with shock. She recognized that little girl--it was she. How could it possibly be true?

Janie can't believe that her loving parents kidnapped her, but as she begins to piece things together, nothing makes sense. Something is terribly wrong. Are Mr. and Mrs. Johnson really Janie's parents? And if not, who is Janie Johnson, and what really happened?

Lovin it!

It's really sad, but I love it! We're reading it in our 6th grade class and we all love it. I'd recommend it to anyone and everyone!

My Thoughts

When i first saw this book it was from my friend. I got it out of the library and started to read it. It was amazing. That Janie could go through all of this and still not go crazy.(even though she sorta did.) Reeve is an amazing charecter and i think Cooney really brought out the teenagers life with friends family and a love life. An amazing book and I can't wait to read the others.

Best book ever

It was a wonderful book. there was a lot of detail to descibe the cherecters. It was also a cliff hanger which I loved about the book, and other books. It also had a little over romance, which droped my rating by .5, but there isnt a 4.5 option so I settled for 5. The romance enhanced the book, but not what happened when Janie and Reeve almost did going home from New Jersey. Yet, I cant imagine the book without Reeve. Other than that it was a fabolous book.

Pretty Good

I remember reading this when I was 10 or 11 - 8 years ago. I don't remember everything to the T because it's been a while. But I do remember enjoying it thoroughly, and while a lot of reviewers are saying that the content is inappropriate, I didn't think so. I was a very sheltered child, and this book did not scar, confuse, or bother me in any way. Just thought I should throw that out there.

Face on the Milk Carton

I can't imagine what it would be like to one day see a missing child picture on a milk carton and find out it's YOU! Filled with suspense and drama and what the Johnson's are going to do, the Face on the Milk Carton is a must read.
