Praise for the Janie Johnson series:
The Face on the Milk Carton • An IRA-CBC Children’s Choice
“It’s a gripper. You can’t put it down until you’ve gone through the whole trauma with Janie Johnson, from that first moment of horrified recognition to the thoroughly satisfying conclusion.” —Entertainment Weekly
“Those of us of a certain age devoured this book. . . . It made us think, and keep thinking about it, even after we finished reading. For many of us, too, it was the kickoff to a lifelong love of reading, particularly in the genres of suspense and horror.” —The Atlantic
“Absorbing and convincing. Strong characterizations and suspenseful, impeccably paced action add to this novel’s appeal.” —Publishers Weekly
“Cooney again demonstrates an excellent ear for dialogue and a gift for portraying responsible middle-class teenagers trying to come to terms with very real concerns.” —School Library Journal
