From Publishers Weekly

This futuristic novel focuses on a totalitarian regime and the Internet. PW noted, "The plot development is sometimes implausible and the characterizations a bit brittle, but the unsettling, thought-provoking premise should suffice to keep readers hooked." Ages 8-12. (Mar.)
Copyright 2000 Reed Business Information, Inc.


From School Library Journal

Grade 5-8-Born third at a time when having more than two children per family is illegal and subject to seizure and punishment by the Population Police, Luke has spent all of his 12 years in hiding. His parents disobeyed once by having him and are determined not to do anything unlawful again. At first the woods around his family's farm are thick enough to conceal him when he plays and works outdoors, but when the government develops some of that land for housing, his world narrows to just the attic. Gazing through an air vent at new homes, he spies a child's face at a window after the family of four has already left for the day. Is it possible that he is not the only hidden child? Answering this question brings Luke greater danger than he has ever faced before, but also greater possibilities for some kind of life outside of the attic. This is a near future of shortages and deprivation where widespread famines have led to a totalitarian government that controls all aspects of its citizens' lives. When the boy secretly ventures outside the attic and meets the girl in the neighboring house, he learns that expressing divergent opinions openly can lead to tragedy. To what extent is he willing to defy the government in order to have a life worth living? As in Haddix's Running Out of Time (S & S, 1995), the loss of free will is the fundamental theme of an exciting and compelling story of one young person defying authority and the odds to make a difference. Readers will be captivated by Luke's predicament and his reactions to it.

4.0étoiles sur 5 Among the Hidden, Mars 13 2007
This review is from: Among the Hidden (Paperback)

Among the Hidden Review
Author: Margaret Peterson Haddix

Can you imagine yourself not being known of your existence by your relatives other than your inner family, not having any friends, not ever seeing other people except for your parents and your two legal brothers? I can't imagine my life even close to that, but Luke the main character of Among the Hidden a book likely to be true in the future is living the hardest, most confusing, and frightening life that I can imagine!

Luke is a 13-year-old shadow child. There are two kinds of police in this world. The average typical police and the, population police. The population police have made many new laws and the most important one is that the population police hate shadow children. Shadow children are the third child and forth child in a family hiding from the population police because that one important law I that nobody is allowed . The population police will do anything to find and torture shadow children until they die. That's what every shadow child knows and is afraid of except for one, the one that changed Luke's life. One day he sees a girl peeking out one of the windows of one house, but he already saw the 2 boys from the family leave to what legal children go to as school. One day Luke builds the courage to run to the other house and to find out the truth. For weeks and months Luke ran across after meeting Jen and they become great friends. Jen tells Luke how wonderful it is when she's outside in the city except that she always is faking who she is by using a fake ID .Later on in the story Jen has a brilliant idea to get all third children free. Does Luke dare to follow on in this dangerous plan in the middle of the night holding up signs to let them free? Does Luke know the truth, can he trust everyone? Can he trust anyone?

This book is great to read especially because you can relate to the characters feelings because they are so real. The characters are also real because when you think of yourself in their
position they do what you would do and think what you would. Most readers can also relate the characters themselves and other people by making the characters seem real by basing the characters personality on another person the author may know.

A great thing about the book too is the writing style the author uses. I think she uses many juicy words that capture you into the book and holds suspense after every chapter so you can't put the book down. When you pass a cliffhanger the upcoming text is least expected, unpredictable, surprising text with another mystery to the story. (I think Margaret P Haddix also plans many connections between the characters so no character has a small part to the story and all characters have a reason to the story's plot.)

The ending of the book holds another one of the hundreds of cliffhangers in Margaret P Haddix's series of shadow children. Luke is on his way to a real school with a fake ID and the story continues in the second book called Among the Impostures. Surprises also jump out to all characters especially to Jen and sad and happy events happen until the book wraps up in realistic choices of characters and a mind full of questions waiting to be solved.

Every book has a major theme but this particular book has many themes and the author bases them on the most realistic events so the reader knows exactly how to base them towards their life. There are three major themes from Among the Hidden and many more from the whole series. One is... think before you act because you can't go back in time. I learned that when lke makes his many mistakes but luckily he finds his way out of things. Another is... danger is hidden at every corner of life; you never know what can happen. I learned that because when ever Luke thinks it is safe something else happens. Last but not least... anyone can do anything if they really try and never give up. I learned this when Luke tries to do something because every time he tries he sticks to it and succeeds. I find that these themes help you move on in life, stay safe and succeed in anything.

This book will be a great book for young adults ages 9-12 that like mysteries and parts of scariness. It is a book that will make you think of others, want to curl up in a corner that withholds a never ending adventure!

5.0étoiles sur 5 a great book!, Juil 3 2004
Par Un client
In a future where the government enforces a strict policy of allowing only 2 children to a family, illegal third child luke garner must lead a secretive and cocealed life in his family home and the surrounding wood. But soon his life becomes even more secretive when a housing development is built across from his house, and his parents, fearing for his safety, restrict him only to the confines of his home.

Following the exploits of luke as he longs for freedom and a better life, this book is exciting interesting, and a heart pounding page-turner without much even happening. In fact, the plot is so simple it could be paraphrased into ashort story; but that is th beauty of the book, how the author wraps you into this frightening reality and portrays luke's feeling with such skill and description that the bookeasily recieves five stars from me.

This books is thrilling with excitement, you never want to put the book down. Luke, is hiddin and he hates it, but one day looking out of a vent in his room, he saw in another window, a face, but everyone that was saposta leave in thats house already did, Luke's heart had raced. Another third child. Luke waited eagerly to see his new friend, but when he arrived he finds a spunky, tomboy, named Jen, she's got some big plans for her and Luke, before Luke even knows whats going on. She wants to be free she wants all shadow children to be free. Fake ID's are out of the question,and Luke slowly begins to understand why she hates the goverment so much, and he relises he does to. On the big night(im not going to tell you what the name is you shoud just go find out your self), when Jen is saposta make everything right, and have illegals come out in pupblic and be safe, she comes into Lukes home and ask's him to go with her, Lukes says no. And it was the right desishion. Luke dosent hear from Jen for days after the big night, so he gets the courge to go over, there he meets Jen's dad and learns a horrifing secret about him, there he gets a Fake ID and he makes a promise to his family to make a diffrence in the world. So hes comeing out of hidding........But he's walking into danger. Wait why am i saying all this????Go read the book, for me, for Luke, For Jen, For Margret.
