Among the Hidden (Shadow Children #1)

Reader reviewed by Ali

I am a fifth grader, and I just completed Among The Hidden by Margaret Peterson Haddix. When I was reading I kept asking to myself, "would I myself have own the guilt to have confidence in the rally of that sort?" It's something we all have our personal thoughts about. However, wouldn't it be a nice trate to have. In life ther's going to be ups and downs, positives and negetives, but that's life, and that's how it's going to be. Maybe if main character Luke, would have had the will, the ending would have a different result.

Among the 3^rd children

         There is a little boy named Luke he is a 3^rd child and you cant have three kids they say its the law.  

 Luke saw a child in a house through his vent. It was a girl and her name is Jen are going on an adventure soon.  

 The reasons I liked the book because it made you want to read the next chapter, because it stopped when it said, Luke had broken into the sports familys house his first time. If you like adventure books you would want to check it out at your local library Among the hidden.

                                                    About Lukes life

            Well, Among the Hidden was about Luke and Men. The want to do what is right.

The forest was cut down. Luke cannot eat at the table, because the Population Police will see him. But now, Luke has to eat on the stairs. He has to sleep in the roof. Luke meeting Jen in the middle. He has to stay home.

            The reason I like the book. It had some exciting parts like when Luke meeting Jen .Their was some sad parts in the middle. And, something sad happen at the end.

            My Recommendation about the book Luke was a third child A person who would like the book that income with his or her friend or friends.

                                                                 Shadow children 

This book is about Luke meeting Jen one day when he snuck over Her house and broke in and was hit by Jen thats when they didnt know other but this is how they meet Luke is a shadow child the same way Luke is.                                                                                                                                                                                                                 I feel really bad that they had to stay in the house just because they were third children . If you havent read the book you should read it because it is a very good book and you will enjoy it. I liked it because it was interesting because I learned about the population law but .I think it is stupid because of how u can only have two children. But I also like the book because of how saw Jen.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  I think that is very, very cool how he would hang out with Jen but when Jen started talking about the rally he. I new something was up and even she was tiring to get Luke to go with here and 40 friends im glad he didnt go he wouldve got killed. If  u havent read this book you should read it is a very good book. I think you will enjoy it.                                                                                                                                                               I think Austin would like it thats what I would think

Its about a girl name Jen and a boy name Luke. They were the shadow children. They couldnt get out of the house because there was a population law. And if they saw them they would get killed! And when Luke escaped from his house he went to the Sports familys house and thats when he meets Jen.

The reason I liked the book is because it was interesting because when Luke and Jen were getting on the computer to look up something. Then the part of when Jen went to the rally with all the other 40 shadow children. And when they got to the presidents  house they had the rally and the population police was going to fought with the shadow children all of the sudden. Jen got killed.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           I think that the boys and girls might like to read it because it is so                          interesting. And the people who like the book like Among the Hidden, if that is their first time reading Among the Hidden. They wouldnt know what the population law is.

Im reading a book called Among The Hidden. It took my class and I a long time to read this book but I liked it. Now I want to read all of your other book. Its about a child that is hidden from the population police, hes a third child.  But they are not allowed to have more than two children.

            Now I want you to read all of your other books.  I have to say that I liked everything about this book. It was not too long and not too short and it was very detailed like you made us feel like we were in the book.  

            I liked this book and now I hope you do too.  I think people who like to be excited and some parts were sad.

What I Think Of the Shadow Children                                     

            I like Margret Haddixs books because her books are exiting and mysteries. Her writing is amazing and can make you feel like you are one of the characters in the book.                                                                                                                 Next, the mean charters are Luck and Jen. There not allowed to exist but they exist and are hiding from the government. In fact several hundred kids are illegal and are in hiding from the government and live in fare of the propulsion

Police will find them.                                                                                                    

            Finally I recommend the book for kids in forth or fifth grade and anybody who likes mysteries that is my opinion on Among the Hidden. If you want to hear the rest you should read it for yourself.  What is your opinion?

Ive never been under a population law, but author Margret Peterson Haddix made me think I was the whole time. As I was reading, Luke is an illegal third child he sees a face in the sports familys house which he already knew had two kids, so he made a plot to go over.

            First, the reason I liked it was how brave Jen and Luke are. The second reason is theirs sad and happy parts.Jen is brave because she risked her life for freedom. Luke is brave because he goes outside instead of doing what his mom & dad told him to do. It would be like me and my brother disobeying our parents orders.

To conclude, if you want to find out the ending, read the book yourself!

I recommend any book lovers would be interested in this book.
