Written by John David Anderson
This story is about a girl getting trapped inside of her school after her BFF and her BFF’s new friends lock her inside of the science closet. She escapes from the closet and tries to go home, but the doors are locked so she pulls the fire alarm for help. But that just makes the power go off. She is scared and starts to feel like she is not alone. I liked this book because it kept me glued to the pages. What I didn’t like is that it has some swearing. I don’t know why people keep putting swear words in books for kids. There are cooler words to say.
