It is a junior fiction book so it's pretty easy to follow, but the whole of idea of earth suffering from a food shortage and population explosion is intriguing. What would the government do?? The end caught me off guard and I am excited to read the rest of the story to find more out about Luke, I mean Lee. I hate that this was so sad but it an AWSOME story!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i liked the book it was mysteris This was a good book, while reading it I kept thinking of my partner, who would love this book, which she is currently reading! to be told and live in a world that were you beleive or well everyone around you beleives and then coming to the rrelize that it is wrong well the Government is wrong, I would have chosen another book. no reviews | add a review

In fact, Luke has never had a friend.Luke is one of the shadow children, a third child forbidden by the Population Police. He's lived his entire life in hiding, and now, with a new housing development replacing the woods next to his family's farm, he is no longer even allowed to go outside. Then, one day Luke sees a girl's face in the window of a house where he knows two other children already live. Finally, he's met a shadow child like himself. Jen is willing to risk everything to come out of the shadows -- does Luke dare to become involved in her dangerous plan? Can he afford not to?
