4.0 out of 5 stars great kdis book!, June 11, 2001

By A Customer

This book was one of my favorites of all the series.A must buy.I really liked it because it had lots of adventure and kept you biting your nails.:)I couldn't put it down! I liked how Judd, Vicki, and Lionel were in trouble instead of like the beginning books where they kinda just stayed at home and stuff.Even though these books say they are really only for 9-12 I'm 14 and greatttly enjoy them!

5.0 out of 5 stars The best in the series!, March 26, 2004

A Kid's Review

This book was the best in the series. I really like it! It's my favorite one because it's filled with action, adventure and because the main character in the book is one of my favorites. The kids are hiding and find a hidden cave. There are snakes and Shelly gets very freaked. Shelly is one of my favorite characters (...) What will happen if the commander catches the kids? Will the kid's friends get away from the commander before it's too late? This book is really good! If you like lots of suspense, read this book!!! I have read it several times already. It's a great book!!!

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Battling the Commander (Left Behind) (Turtleback)

Left Behind by Jerry B. Jenkins. Left Behind is a great fantasy book that I would recommend to anyone over nine. I recommend this book to anyone over nine because it is a great book that is mysterious. The story begins with seven kids escaping from a jail.The kids run and run until they find a cave. They stay in there for days until it was safe to go outside, then they realized they were being followed and kept running until they found a tunnel which led into another cave. Little did they know when they got in the cave they were not going to be alone. The cave was very muggy and wet, but they had no clue that there were thousands of small and huge SNAKES in the cave!!!!!
Judd is one of the kids, and he is like there leader because he takes care of them and calms them down when they get scared, even if he is scared. Judd made all of the calls. The other kids thought he was very bossy at times, but he had to be sometimes if they wanted to survive. Judd had a lap top but it didn't have much battery left. So they had to use their time wisely on the computer if they wanted to connect with the outside world, and believe me they wanted to connect with the outside world if they wanted food and water.
If you want to know what happened to the kids, you have to read this great fantasy book, Left Behind.
