All the Lost Things

 Fiction by Michelle Sacks


Seven year-old Dolly is "going on an adventure" with her dad, but in the back of her mind she realizes something is wrong about this unexpected road trip. Why did Dad forget to pack any of her things? Why doesn't he let her call and talk to Mom? And where are they going anyways?

It's obvious to the reader that Dad has abducted Dolly and Mom doesn't know where they are. But the telling of the story through the child's eyes makes the book really unique. This was a really good book, although it was also sad.
