Book Review By Steve Stelloh
The Face on the Milk Carton by Caroline B. Cooney

This book is centered around Janie Johnson. Janie is a typical teenager who is getting excited about finally getting her license to drive. Her worlde gets turned upside down, however when she is in the lunchroom one day and sees a familiar face on the back of a milk carton, her own! She is convinced that that is her on the carton and, with the help of her neighbor and new boyfriend Reeve, sets out to find the truth. Was she really born to Frank and Miranda Johnson or was she taken from a shopping mall in New Jersey so many years ago?
