The Missing: Sent

The Missing: Book 2 Sent, by Margaret Peterson Haddix
(Grades 4 - 7)

The sequel to Found has arrived and it's even more of a break-neck adventure than the first in the series! Thirteen-year-old Jonah and his sister Katherine are sent to fifteenth century England with their friends Chip and Alex to find that Chip is the current King of England, and in imminent danger (along with his brother, Alex) from Richard of Gloucester who wants the crown for himself. Jonah and Katherine must fix "time" and save their friends. Can they do both and keep themselves alive? This brilliant blend of historical and science fiction will both engage and educate readers.
