Product Description
Thirteen-year-old Jonah has always known that he was adopted, and he's never thought it was any big deal. Then he and a new friend, Chip, who's also adoped, begin receiving mysterious letters. The first one says, "You are one of the missing." The second one says, "Beware! They're coming back to get you."PJonah, Chip, and Jonah's sister, Katherine, are plunged into a mystery that involves the FBI, a vast smuggling operation, an airplane that appeared out of nowhere -- and people who seem to appear and disappear at will. The kids discover they are caught in a battle between two opposing forces that want very different things for Jonah and Chip's lives.PDo Jonah and Chip have any choice in the matter? And what should they choose when both alternatives are horrifying?PWith IFound/i, Margaret Peterson Haddix begins a new series that promises to be every bit as suspenseful as her IShadow Children/i series -- which has sold more than 41/2 million copies -- and proves her, once again, to be a master of the page-turner.

 Found January 6, 2009
PARENTS OF ADOPTED CHILDREN, TAKE NOTICE! This book can bring up a lot of issues that your adopted children may not be ready to handle. I have two 10 year old Russian boys and we were only on chapter 4 when I realized that we should not continue reading this book. I'm not saying it's a bad book, just read FIRST and determine yourself if you're children are mature enough to understand/handle the issues that this story may bring forth.
 Found January 1, 2009
his is the first in a series (but aren't most books nowadays? It seems like no one writes stand alone books anymore). 36 babies are found on a plan that landed mysteriously at an airport. All of the babies were adopted out to families. About 12 years later, the adopted kids start getting mysterious letters in the mail. What is going on? Are they from the past? The future? Is time travel really possible?br /br /This would be a good book for both boys and girls since there are strong characters of both genders. It's a longish book but I think reluctant readers could keep with it. The ending is definitely a cliffhanger and will leave readers wanting more.br /br /[...]
This is a Good Book! December 30, 2008
I was pleasantly surprised by this book. Margaret Peterson Haddix churns out a lot of books, so some of her efforts end up better than others. This book reminded me of the Everworld series but without the bad language and it's centered around younger teens. There is an extremely positive and respectful relationship between the thirteen yearl old main character,Jonah and his twelve year old sister, Katherine. Time travel isn't the central theme of this first book, but instead is woven in as the common theme that will run throughout the series. I'm looking forward to the next book which will be set in the fifteenth century.
