Review Trailer This book is called found. The three main characters are Jonah, Katherine (Jonah's sister), and Chip, who is both of their friends. Jonah and started recieving eerie letters in the mail without any return adress. Jonah and Chip both thought that it was somebody in their school trying to play a joke on him, because he was adopted. Chip recieves a letter that was the exact same. Chip thought that it was stupid because he WASNT adopted. But when he went home, his life would change. He WAS adopted. They went to the FBI and there was a man. his name was Mr. Reardon. They thought they were going to go get some answers, but he wouldn't tell them anything. Chip started not feeling well, so he went to the bathroom. He threw up, but then out of nowhere came a janitor that told him that he needed to get behind Mr. Reardon's desk, and to check the list of names of people and remember as many as possible. He got in and tried to divert Mr. Reardon, but didn't know what to do. But just as that happened, Katherine sprang into action and took a picture. It had two different lists. Survivors and Witnesses. Jonah and Chip were both on the Survivors list. It had street adresses, phone numbers. They called each number on the list, and it turns out that they were all adopted and lived in a very small area. They do find one person on the witness list that sounded apologetic about having to hang up on them. Her name was Angela. Everyone else was rude or harsh to them on the witnesses list. They waited a few days, and unknowingly, they came across a letter in the mail saying that they know about their past and she wouldn't say anything on the phone because it's not safe. Jonah, Katherine, and Chip debated weather or not to meet with her, but they came to their senses and decided to go and meet with her. And this is their story:

-there was a plane that mysteriously appeared from thin air. -but there was nobody in it. not even a pilot. -the only people in the plane were 36 babies. -it came allong through time travel. The government thought that if you can move faster that light, you can bend time and change everything. -The government thought that they could make a lot of money taking babies that didn't really matter too much in time and then bring them to the future and then fix them up so they cannot remember anything. But they had a problem on the way and had to land in current time (for us). -they crash landed in an airport. Each of the babies there was on the survivor's list. and everybody who saw the plane/babies was on the witnesses list. - the mail was sent by the janitor who told Jonah to look at the lists and another man. It was made years ago in an old fashioned mail factory.

- in the mail, everybody got an envelope that had an adoption get together. they sorted the kids out to regular adoptees and the 36 children on the plane. Katherine took the identity of another child that couldn't make it to the get-together so she could go with Chip and Jonah. The leaders of the group (the janitor and the other man) brought them into a cave and they made up some excuse to touch a certain rock that was actually a finger scanner to make sure that they had the right kids. Katherine got out of it so she could stay with them. - they went to a place where there is no time. and they kept them there for a wile until they got in a fight. The kids took charge and they found out this whole story. and right at the end of the book, Jonah and Chip went to a different time to try to change things back to the way they were.
