Summary: Among The Imposters
Review: ...I liked this book a lot. One reason I like this because the action never stopped. I liked this book and I don't usually read books. This book is about a boy who came out of hiding because he was a third child. He goes to a school for boys called Hendricks School For Boys. He hangs out with some boys that he later finds out that are third children. But one is an imposter. He later passes a "test." That he can blend in with the real children because this school was actually made for third children.

Summary: Among the Impostors Review
Review: Among the hidden is a book you can't put down. If you read the next book that comes after Among the Hidden is a book that longs readers for more time. I mean it is a really good book. What I can tell you about the author, Margaret Peterson Haddix is that she writes books that entertain you. My favorite part about the book Among the Hidden is when Luke escape from school and ran to the woods. When I had to eat I was in that part. I was like what would happen to Luke would he stay in the woods for the rest of his life there. But I didn't miss that part I kept reading and stop where it said he read the note and it said "blend in".Just because I was so eager to read the book I missed my super.

Summary: among the imposters
Review: Among the Imposters Aladdin library, 2002, 192pp., ... ISBN: 0689839081

What if you were an illegal third child and had been hiding al your life? What would you do if you only had one friend, who died and you had to go to school far away from your home with a different name? Well this is what life was like for Luke Gardner.
In the first book of the of the shadow children series Among the Hidden families could only have two children, but the gardeners had three. Luke Gardner was happy. He was allowed to go outside and help his dad in the fields. But all that changed when the baron houses were built. Luke makes friends with his neighbor Jen, who is also a third child. Then the population police come and Luke has to get out oft here quick. So, Mr. Talbot, (Jens dad), gets Luke a fake I.D. and takes Luke to Hendricks school for boys. There he becomes Lee Grant.
The second book Among the Imposters starts off with Luke at his new school. After feeling very left out, Luke/lee found a door that leads outside. I know what you're thinking, that Luke runs away but that doesn't happen. He tries to get out there as much ads he can. It is out there that he meets his new friends who happen to be third children too. After Luke thought that everything was perfect unfortunately something goes wrong and Luke finds himself calling Mr. Talbot for help.
I was immediately drawn to this book. I found myself able to put it down. At times I felt sorry for Luke but then happy for him. I couldn't wait to find out what happened next and couldn't wait to read the next books, Among the Betrayed and Among the Barons.

Summary: Incredible Must-Read
Review: Among the Imposters details the life of a boy who must live his life unknown. Where he comes from you may only have 2 children. So he is hidden in a boarding school with another name and identity. He finds his true self in a place where no one is who they seem to be. This story is so well written you need not read Among the Hidden to cherish the pages of this book. You will become part of the school and the story as if you were there. I highly recommend this book to everyone. Read it aloud, share it with a friend but, by all means, don't miss this opportunity to read this book. You won't be sorry!!! It's guaranteed to thrill, shock and amaze you.

Summary: Among the Imposters Book Review
Review: Among The Imposters is a very suspensful book for ages 8-800! It is a book of Imposters, and betrayers. Haddix did a VERY good job in Among the hidden, and hopefully the rest of her books. If you enjoyed Among The Hidden, and Among the Imposters, then you will LOVE Among the Betrayed, the third book in the Shadow Children Series. The fourth book in that series is Among The Barons which I have not read yet. This Seiries is VERY GOOD and if you want to read them, dont buy JUST the first one, buy them all because you will be so far into it the day you read it, that when you are done, you will want to read all of the other books. You can buy these books at your nearest book store!

NOTE: Among the Betrayed does NOT come in paper back yet!

Summary: Among the Imposters
Review: Among the Imposters is about a boy named Lee Grant, his real name is Luke, but after receiving a fake ID his name changed. Luke is a third child. Third children are illegal because of the population law. The Government thought that in the future the planet would run out of food so they passed the population law. It stated that you could not have more that two children. In the first book (Among the Hidden) Luke met another third child. Now he gets a chance to school and live a normal life in a normal school. Or so he thinks.
I would recomend this book to someone who likes fast reads. The book has some intense scenes where you dont want to put it down. Also it is iteresting ot learn about people who are forced to live life in secret.

Rating: 5 stars

Review: Among the Imposters

Among the Imposters, the sequel to Among the Hidden, is a thrilling science fiction book that will have you guessing until the very end. Luke Garner, an illegal third child, uses his mysterious alias, Lee Grant, to live in the outside world. The whole book was great except for the beginning. It took almost half the book for me to really get into it, yet once I got to the exciting parts I couldn't put the book down. One night I read 2 hours straight. So, even though the beginning seems boring keep with it and you wont' regret it!

Summary: Among the Imposters
Review: Among the Imposters

Among the Imposters is a great book that is filled with excitement and suspense. In order to understand this book you must first read the book Among the Hidden. Among the Imposters is the second book in the series. Among the Imposters captured my attention in the very first chapter. This is the absolute best book that I have ever read. Luke, the main character, has a lot of new and exciting things happen to him. In order to find out what happens to Luke you will have to read the book. My favorite part of the book is near the end of the book. Among the Imposters is a fictional book that will keep your eyes glued to the book at all times. Every time that I had to put this book down I would say can I please just finish the paragraph that I am on? Sometimes the teacher would say yes. Sometimes I would bring my book to my room to read it at night when I had to go to bed and then my mom would always come down and tell me lights out. I would wake up in the morning and start my day off reading this book. Margaret Peterson Haddix uses exquisite words to describe how Luke feels through out this book. For example: Luke longed to race straight to the woods as soon as he woke up the next morning. It was torture to stand patiently beside all the other boys, splashing water on his face. It was torture to sit still and slowly spoon in the lumpy oatmeal, when he longed to gulp it down and get out of there. That is one of the phrases that grabbed my attention now don't you want to read this book?
