Among the Hidden Reflection
Among the hidden and Among the Impostors (323 pages)

“Among the hidden” and “Among the Impostor” is part of the phenomenal series called “The shadow children book.” This magnificent book is by Margaret Peterson Haddix. Her writing is very complex but descriptive as well, making it easier to understand the mystery book. She has countless memorable novels such as Turnabouts, Just Ella and Running out of Time. After I read this amazing series, I am hoping to read these outstanding novels. That’s why I decided to start of reading her best-selling book “Among the hidden.”

The lesson I learned during this book was not to betray your friends. This is because a teenager named Jason told the population police his friends’ real names and that they are third children. When the police came, he checked their files and different names were posted and Jason was shocked and stammering. Then, he got arrested and went to jail.

I recommend this outstanding book to grade 6 and above. Mainly because there are some inappropriate words in the book which isn’t a severe word you’ll see adult use or even high school kids when they are talking with their friends. This is a mystery/suspense book with lots of surprises happens throughout the book like in the second book, Luke wants a fake Id and gets it however the population police comes but doesn’t get caught which you won’t understand because he never does any bad action. There is also sadness like in the first book; Jen gets shot at president’s house which was also a surprise. If you’re grade 6 and above and love mystery/suspense and sadness then it’s a great choice to read these book.

My favourite character is Luke because in both of the books because of his loving personality, he is nice, caring and respectful. He possess very good characteristic which will help him get good friends who will not tell on him on the population police because he is the third child, none of his friend does except Jason and he got his

    It was a relatable and very interesting book. My favorite character was Mary, because she was so sweet and helpful. After Eric was beaten up, she took him home and waited with him. She was a good friend to Eric. The character I didn’t like was Griffin, because I thought he was very fake and lied about everything. He took out his anger by bullying other kids. I didn’t like how Griffin stole Rudy’s money and stole Eric CD.…

    The Book Thief is a novel by Markus Zusak about a girl during World War Two who becomes a foster child after her mother abandons her. In this novel, the basic theme is love. Love is everything.

    Almost all of America has some point on Christmas Eve or even Christmas Day sat down in front of the TV and watched A Christmas Carol on one of the local channels. It’s like a tradition at my house and probably is at many other households as well. Charles Dickens created the modern Christmas, the Christmas we all know and celebrate today. When we watch the movie or read his book, people mainly focus on the story of Christmas and how Dickens creates that image in our head. One major story we miss by just thinking about the Christmas season is what the economy and society was like during his lifetime. Dickens wrote A Christmas Carol after the British government changed the welfare system…

    I would recommend this to an older audience. It has some parts that are not appropriate for kids. “Snape is pulled hard to the ground and then pushed high into the air as his soul is ripped from him.”(Rowling 195) I would rate this book an 8 because it has a lot of action but there were some boring parts. “The Trolley Witch's hands transfigure into very sharp spikes.” Overall it was a great novel and was very…

    In class we have established that mist, smoke, and fog represent communism in the way that those caught up in it are engulfed and have no power over it. When one is trapped in fog they are helpless as they cannot fight it. All they can do is try and escape it or remain where they are inside it. When inside a communistic country one is similarly powerless to fight back. All the power is in the hands of a few and one can only remain subjected to their power or attempt to escape. However in the novel Paradise of the Blind the author, Duong Thu Huong, demonstrates that escape is not a permanent option because once the fog is too thick you are unable to see what direction you are headed. You can’t even tell if you’re heading deeper into the fog or towards relief. Similarly once communistic leaders gain enough power they can put procedures into place that will make it more difficult to escape.…

    Reflection allows an individual to identify the reasons or purpose of understanding the outcome of a particular situation in depth in term of emotions on thought and feeling on the topic area. In addition, Reflection is something that we do implicitly as part of being human, underpinning our identities through a process of negotiation between our sense of self and our experiences of others (Demetriou, 2000, p.210). Therefore, I have implemented this quote in my professional and personal goals I wanted and have achieved thought-out the process of the module.
