I loved this book with all my heart.I think the USA is being a little too far fetched. ( )

I loved the story. 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. ( )

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0689824750, Paperback)

Luke has never been to school. He's never had a birthday party, or gone to a friend's house for an overnight. 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?
