#13 -- Eleven

Eleven by Patricia Reilly Giff is centered around the number 11.  The main character Sam sees the number 11 everywhere, but why??  He finds a box with a newspaper article attached.  It says MISSING across the top with his picture.  Why is he missing?  Who is Sam Bell??  He enlists his friend Caroline to help him find out.  They embark on a quest for the truth.

This was a great book with real characters -- even one with a learning disability.  It would appeal to 5th - 8th graders and even to adults!  If you want to see for yourself, come by the library and check it out!
