Ashley | 6 comments I read this when I was young. its about a boy whose father kidnapped children and attempted to give them new identities. the father was put in jail and the children sent back to their families. the boy was sent to a family who claimed he was their son, but he had no recollection of them. it wasn't till the end of the book that he realized he was their son and was one of the first children the man had kidnapped.

Ashley, someone else in the group was looking for a similar book. Sorry I'm not having a lot of luck with my searching for it right now, and I have to get off line (nasty line of thunderstorms heading towards me) but you might want to do a search (there is a little search box for just our group to the right of the threads section) and see if you can find it. Good luck.

If it's the same Ashley in the last post in this thread, this may be solved.

The post I think Ann aka Iftcan is mentioning
