Great book!

Review by Sophia

This book was great although the chapters were short. Every chapter you unravel something new. You get to read all the main characters perspective each chapter. I personally love this book because of all the aspects and how they tie in together. The characters are all involved with the mystery of the baby! I hope you enjoy this book as much as I did!

The summer we found the baby

Review by Bellananda

It was sooooo good Julie had a hard life being an older sister and her mom passing away but she pushed through it. And Martha always was the one who was very clingy to Julie and her dog George. Bruno was having a hard time with his brother in war. And was weird when I’m reading my sisters books and I’m only eight.
