Amoung the hidden i believe there is another version that i know. But i guess that it is just a diffrent cover and i didn't reconize it. There is one with a diffrent pic. for cover. By the same author and title... Anyways. Yes, this a book related to China because in this book you can only have 2 children and in China you can only have 1 children. So in this book the third child is hidden...

I read this book and it was great. I'm just reading the second book.

Luke Garner is a third child in a society that only allows 2 or less children per family. He is doing his best to hide, and conceal his identity. He is ok with it, until his parents start to become really overprotective. The woods are cut down, and the government built "Baron" homes. He starts to think there is more to his life than hiding, especially when he finds another third child, who is courageous and wants to change everything. A story that will dramactically change, in a good way.
