Wanted!!! By:Caroline B. Cooney

You can imagine how Alice (the main character) felt when she heard the tragic news about her fathers death. Unbelievable, Alice was being accused of her fathers death. Earlier that same day, Alice received an anonymous call. When she answered the phone,it happened to be her father telling her to drive his corvette to the place where they usually buy milkshakes and give him two disks that were titled "TWIN." Surprised in shock from the mysterious call, barely recognizing her fathers voice Alice gently reminded him that she was just fifteen years old and that she didn't have a drivers license. Her father abruptly responded, "IT DOESN'T MATTER!"

So Alice takes her dads corvette and drives an aggressive drive to the milk-shake parlor. Alice waits for her dad patiently. He never shows up or even calls. Then Alice decides to call her mother to have some informationof what was going on. I can imagine that her heart was beating really fast that you can probably hear it. Alice's mom tells her about receiving her daughters confession. At times I think that Alice had a really hard time believing her dad or as she may say "daddy" was dead. You can tell that Alice thought a lot throughout the entire book. She probably thought mostly about the many differences her parents had and how much she wanted to have a close relationship with both of her parents. Alice was very adventurous, after she ran out of food , she always found what she needed. It would be hard to be Alice, she was very calm and brave. While you read yhis book you will find out who Alice loved so much."She needed daddy. She loved daddy." The mysterious plot keeps your blood pumping. While reading this book you can visualize every scene. Once you start rezding it, you won't want to stop. Written and Published by:Yoshi c.
