There are lots of characters in this book but the main characters are Luke and Jen. They both have different character traits. Luke’s are brave, kind, nervous, scared, and surprised. These traits will change throughout the book. Jen’s are brave, kind,sacrificial, tricky, and smart. These change throughout the book too. You will found out more about the characters in the book.
In this book you get to know the life of a third child in this made up world. Next you find out how Luke sees a third child in his neighbor's window (His neighbor is really rich- baron). Lastly, weeks later look goes over and meets the girl that he saw she was planning something really big to save third children. In this amazing book you should think the theme is: always follow your heart.
In this great book if you dig deep down into your thinking you will probably get never give up as your theme. But really I think it is always follow your heart. I believe this because Luke and Jen did what they wanted to do.
I recommend this book to people who like suspense, surprises, and heart-felt books. Also, you will not understand it unless you are eight years old.
In conclusion Margaret Peterson Haddix is a fantastic writer. She has won lots of awards. Lastly she has sold this book 2.5 million times. I really think people should read not only this book but the whole series. (The series has lots of themes)
