The Unwanteds by Lisa McMann

This book is about kids who are unwanted because of their creativity. These kids are eliminated and are supposedly dead but they are actually now. The main character Alex Stowe was an unwanted and is sent to his grave but a magician named Mr. Today saved him and brought him to a hidden world that exists to save condemned children. The author is trying to tell us creativity is necessary and can't be dead. It's WILD! Reading this book makes me feel magical because of all the imagination. It goes on forever with no limit. Any child or adult looking for a good book should read this. Andrew C., Grade 6
