Keep your chin up high and grades to the sky

The Face on the Milk Carton, by Caroline B. Cooney pg. 87 -117

Do the characters read the way you think you would in a similar situation ? Do you find their actions troubling? Are their actions consistent with their characters? If not, perhaps ask yourself if it is resonable for anyone to be expected to act consistently in character?

Janie is barely sixteen . A normal sixteen year old worries about boys,driving ,their friends, proms the usual. Janie has a whole new issue. Since finding the milk carton with the the polka dot dress, she has memories, day mares as she calls them. So much stress its more than a child can handle. Was I really Kid napped? Way am I remembering things? people? Who really are my parents? She talks with her best friend. Her parents have answers but everything still doesn't add up. She feels so strange in her own life.
