This book was a whole roller coaster but I loved it SO much. I read it in my class for English readiness and I was IMMEDIATELY obsessed. It was an absolute masterpiece. I loved the mystery, the plot, and especially the HIDDEN message at the end. What an amazing book. Ten out of ten, must read again. That- is a promise. :)

When Wren Abbott and Darra Monson are eight years old, Darra's father steals a minivan. He doesn't know that Wren is hiding in the back. The hours and days that follow change the lives of both girls. Darra is left with a question that only Wren can answer. Wren has questions, too.
Years later, in a chance encounter at camp, the girls face each other for the first time. They can finally learn the truth—that is, if they’re willing to reveal to each other the stories that they’ve hidden for so long. Told from alternating viewpoints, this novel-in-poems reveals the complexities of memory and the strength of a friendship that can overcome pain.

Imagine being kidnapped by accident. That's what happens to Wren, one of the main characters in the book Hidden. Hidden is a realistic fiction book written by Helen Frost. In the book Hidden, Wren Abbott is a 8 year old girl who gets kidnapped by Darra Monson’s father. The kidnapping was an accident but it left both the girls with many questions for each other. A couple years both Darra and Wren meet at a camp. Both girls starting answering each other's questions and revealing the truths. This book is amazing. It is written from both Wren’s and Darra’s point of view, which makes the book more interesting. I would rate it four out of five stars. The type of readers who would like this book would be readers who like books about friendship and suspense. Helen Frost has also written many other books like Keesha’s House and Diamond Willow.
The book I read was Hidden by Helen Frost. The book Hidden is about a girl named Wern got kidnapped by accident. Wern was hiding in a little girl's house. The little girl name was Darra. They meet at a summer camp, and they recognized each other. I think that the book Hidden was a great book. Because, it had some action, drama, and many other things. Also I was surprised when they meet at the summer camp, and saw each other for the first time in six years. This book is realistic fiction. Because it had places, events, this story also could of happen in real life. People who should read this would be people who like some drama, action, courage. People would also like this book because if you like summer camps.
