The Face on the Milk Carton
Overview & Summary
Fifteen-year-old Janie Johnson is stunned to see a photo of herself as a toddler on the back of a milk carton under a different name, listed as a child who disappeared years earlier -- and slowly realizes the parents who raised her may not be who she thought. As she investigates her own hazy early memories, Janie must untangle a devastating truth about her identity and where she truly belongs. Caroline B. Cooney's novel launched a popular suspense series.
