Chaos And Confusion


What do you do when the comfortable life you have taken for granted is suddenly changed forever? In The Face On The Milk Carton, 15-year-old Janie Johnson  lives in a suburb of Connecticut with her doting parents. She is an excellent student, has a wonderful group of friends, and is beginning to fall in love with Reeve, her next door neighbor. One day, Janie's life is thrown into chaos  when she sees a photograph of herself as a three year-old missing child on a milk carton who was abducted from a shopping mall in New Jersey. As Janie reels in shock, she wonders how she should proceed to unravel this mystery. Who is she, and who are the people who claim to be her parents? An engaging page-turner, this novel is the first of the "Janey" books which includes Whatever Happened To Janie?, The Voice On The Radio, What Janie Found, and Janie Face To Face, which is the most recent entry in the series.
