The Face on the Milk Carton

Caroline B. Cooney

      The book “The Face on the Milk Carton” is about a girl named Janie Johnson that thinks she lives her parents but soon comes to find out that she’s not and hasn’t been for years. One day while Janie was sitting at the lunch table at school she glanced down at her milk carton. And that was when her life changed forever.

 The milk carton had a picture of a little girl that had been missing for years. The little girl wore a nice polka dot dress with a white collar and her hair was in tight pigtails. She read the details near the picture; the girl had been taken from a mall in New Jersey years ago. Janie noticed that the little girl staring up at her looked familiar- it was herself!!
