Reeve, one of the main characters, effectively summarizes this story in The Voice on the Radio: "Once upon a time," he begins, "Janie was light and airy. Like hope and joy. Janie had lots of friends and she was crazy about her mom and dad...except one day in the school cafeteria...Janie just happened to glance down at the picture of [the] missing child printed on the milk carton...and the face on the milk carton was Janie herself." The child has been missing since she was three, for twelve years. Janie's strict and loving parents couldn't possibly have kidnapped her, but something is not right and Janie has fragments of memories that don't fit into her current world. What happened, and what - if anything - should Janie do? I'm not a huge fan of the writing style; there is quite a bit of repetition; and Janie's self-involvement, indecision and unhappiness is annoying - if understandably realistic. Still, I found myself drawn in, wanting to know how the story would unfold and be resolved. This book - now twenty years old - continues to be popular with my middle school students.
