Summary: Don't expect putting this down after you start!
Review: The Face on the Milk Carton is a very addicting book. I have never read such a book that kept me embedded in the pages. This book had many different aspects that will fulfill many people's likes. It dealt with a girl named Janie who saw herself on the back of a milk carton as missing. From there, she ponders the thought of if her parents are really her parents. She finds many "twitches" around her house that make her very curious as to if she has been stolen or not. At one point in the book Janie finds a trunk in the attic that is full of clothes from when she was little and her parents had said they had nothing of hers when she was younger. Then Janie gets her neighbor to take her to the neighbor hood on the back of the milk carton to see if anything is familiar to her. This book has some mystery, a little bit of a "love life," and is very suspenseful. I have never been much of a reader, but when I started reading this book I could not put it down. I can relate to everyone else that wrote a review because this was such a GREAT book. To me there aren't enough adjectives I could write to describe it. It was more on the simple side of a book, but I have never enjoyed books with such small writing that you could not read it or when the words are so advanced that you have to look up almost every word in the dictionary so you can understand the book. Caroline B Cooney, the author, did a great job at writing this book and she wrote 3 more to keep the suspense going. If I were someone who had not read this book or the continuations, I would definitely recommend reading this book.

Summary: A Little Confusing, But Gripping
Review: "The Face on the Milk Carton" is about Janie Johnson, a fifteen-year-old who realizes she must have been kidnapped as a child when she recognizes herself in a missing children's ad on a carton of milk. Janie would have been only three-years-old at the time when she disappeared at a New Jersey shopping mall, possibly stolen by one or both of her parents. The thought seems unimaginable; after all, her parents are the kindest, most perfect people Janie knows. But Janie is almost certain she had to have been kidnapped when she starts having daymares, random memories from her past, of being lead away at the mall by a sweet woman who could have been her mother.For quite a while, Janie keeps her discovery to herself, stressing over the possibility of being kidnapped and wanting to deny it could have ever happened. Then she discovers another secret in the attic--a child's dress, the exact one she was wearing in the missing children's picture, along with a trunk full of another child's belongings. Now Janie has all the evidence she needs; she's positive her parents are horrible people who stole her from her real family. She confronts them, demanding to know why there aren't any baby pictures of herself, where her birth certificate is, and whose trunk is in the attic. Janie's parents reluctantly explain everything. First of all, Janie isn't their child; she's their granddaughter. Janie's mother, Hannah, had run away at sixteen to join the Hare Krishna. When she decided to return for awhile, Hannah brought her daughter back with her and asked her parents to take care of Janie. Janie's new guardians were afraid Hannah's cult would want to take Janie back, so they moved across the country to Connecticut. Almost all of Janie's questions were answered, except she can't ignore the memories of another past family. Were her parents telling the truth, or was she indeed kidnapped, possibly by her 'parent's' brainwashed daughter Hannah? Although I liked "The Face on the Milk Carton", I was a little confused at times about Janie's theory of what could have happened to her when she was a child. Perhaps the author wanted the reader to be just as confused and lost as Janie so we'd want to find out how this story ends (and it ends abruptly) in "Whatever Happened to Janie?" This is a really great book for all ages, a little confusing, but gripping. You might also like "Sharing Susan" by Eve Bunting (babies switched at birth). "The Face on the Milk Carton" was made into a TV movie a couple years later in 1995, starring Kellie Martin as Janie. I never saw it, but maybe it'll rerun again.

Summary: :)
Review: --Janie Johnson is fifteen and lives happily with her parents. She has quite a few good friends and she likes her classes at school. But something happens that shatters Janie's happy world: she finds a picture of herself at age three under a missing-children advertisement on a milk carton, under the name Jennie Spring. Janie knows that her parents could never have kidnapped her, yet, as she discovers on a drive up to the address on the milk carton, she looks almost exactly like the four other kids and two parents at the house. Janie knows she must find out what could have happened twelve years ago that caused this. --Packed to the top with emotions, this provides a clear picture of a character's struggle in a realistic situation. --Marisa

Summary: VERY addicting! I just couldn't put it down!
Review: I am a 14 year old who read all the books in this series. I ABSOLUTELY loved them. Once I started the first book in the sereies ("The Face On The Milk Carton") I couldn't put it down. It was just very VERY addicting. At the end of the book it left me in suspense so i just HAD to read the other books in the series. I really really enjoyed reading them too. But don't forget, if you read this book you will want to read the other two (three including the conclusion book "What Jane Found"). That pretty much takes away the suspense. I think that Caroline B. Cooney is a great author. I read 2 of her other books and I just couldn't put them down either.

Summary: An above average book
Review: The face on the milk carton is about a girl named Jaine that steals her friends milk carton and sees her baby picture on the missing side of the milk carton. She brings it home and starts looking around her house for clues to see if she was really kidnapped ten years ago from a mall in New Jersey. She gets her neibor to drive her to the mall in New Jersey to see if see remembers anything. Then see goes to the adress that is on the side of the milk carton. That is about as far as I can go without giving any hints about the ending away. I gave it four stars because it gets alittle complicated and it is alittle hard to follow the story. But it explains it in the 2nd book "Whatever Happened to Janie" The story is contiuned after that in "The Voice on the Radio" and then the final book "What Janie found.
