Summary: Awesome book, awesome author, what more could you ask for?
Review: I first got introduced to Willo Davis Roberts(the author of this book)and her writing when I read Twisted Summer, another book by her, for a book report. I was fascinanted by her style and immediately checked out other books by her. One of them was The Kidnappers. When I finally got to this book through my stack of about eleven others, I started to read it, figuring it would be like every other kidnapping story. Boy, was I wrong! It turned out to be totally unpredictable, which I like about a book. I won't tell you much, only that if you don't read it, you're missing out on a great oppurtunity.

Summary: The best Book Ever
Review: I've watched Chenowyth devour several of Roberts' books, and i wondered what the attraction was for a twelve year old. Now i know. There is suspense, as Joel Bishop's best enemy is kidnapped, within Joel's view, and he struggles to make the adults around him believe that something actually happened. There are a good couple of twists to the plot, as...i can't tell you what. There are believeable characters, including a pair of hard policemen; well-observed, well portrayed. For a young reader, this is probably just the right level of complexity, frustration with adults, exposure to evil, and certainty of a happy ending. No wonder Chen adores these and checks the "R" section every time we visit the library.

Summary: Geez that's a good book!
Review: Joey is someone who extends his stories and has a great imagination. So no one believes him that Willy Groves, his ultimate enemy at school, has been kidnapped! He is so desperate to make someone believe him, he tells as many people as possible about the kidnapping. Big mistake! When he comes face to face with the kidnappers. This is a the kind of book that I say "geez that's a good book!

Summary: A Boring Kidnapping
Review: No gratuitous violence. No sex. No foul language. What more could a parent or teacher want in a novel!!! This is just a simple mystery about an enterprising lad with occasional flights of fantasy that witnesses the kidnapping of one of his tormenters at school. His attempts to rescue his antagonist places are jeopardized by his tendancy to "exaggerate". Family members, as well as the household help, don't believe him and he must use his own determination to make things right and save the life of the missing boy. I highly recommended the book for any classroom or home library.
