this is a very good book for you to read.

I believe the book the Borrowed Children by Geogre Ella Lyon was interesting to read because it was a book to read that will help you make a choice between family, and school. And also the cause and the effect behind your decision. The set was belivable, and you could tell if you just look at it. Mandy is trying to express herself, and trying to go back to school. Yes it made sense. Because Mandy stop going to school to help family, out because her mother nearly died giving birth to William(her brother). Mandy is a good way of getting a teen to think about what will be the cause and the effect of their choice. I think that any body between the ages of 7 and up could read this book.
