Found by Margaret Peterson Haddix is about Jonah, a middle schooler who believes he has led an ordinary life, except for being adopted. That is until he receives a mysterious letter in the mail with no return address. The only message is, "You are one of the missing." At first, Jonah dismisses it as a practical joke, but starts to take it more seriously when his friend Chip receives the same letter. That is the day Chip finds out he's adopted, too. Jonah, Chip, and Jonah's sister Katherine begin digging into the boys' adoption, and find some very interesting information about themselves and 34 other kids who are about their age, all living in the same area. It turns out that one day, out of nowhere, a plane full of babies (an nothing else) appeared from thin air. Their quest for information turns dangerous as they get closer and closer to the truth, and find that certain people are desperately trying to keep them from it.I really liked the beginning of this book, when I was still trying to solve the mystery of the airplane and babies myself. I didn't know the book was going to be about time travel, so I lost a little interest when it turned out that's what happened. The next book in the series, Sent, come out on August 25th, 2009. It is about Chip, Alex, and Jonah and their adventures in the 15th century.
