A Teaching Guide
A Teacher’s Guide for Among the Hidden By Margaret Peterson Haddix Table of Contents • About the Book • Discussion Topics • Activities & Research • About the Author About the Book "A chilling and intelligent novel," is how Kirkus Reviews described Among the Hidden. "Haddix offers much for discussion here." In a society that allows only two children per family, Luke is a third child, a "shadow child." He's illegal, strictly forbidden. So he stays hidden, alone most of the time and frightened all of time. Then one day he discovers another shadow child, Jen, living in one of the fancy new houses that the government built behind his family's farm. Luke and Jan quickly become friends, but Jan is bold and daring and she wants more than companionship from Luke. She wants him to be a crusader, another third child willing to risk everything for freedom. "An exciting and compelling story," wrote School Library Journal. "Readers will be captivated by Luke's predicament and his reactions to it." Discussion Topics 1. The author doesn't specify the setting for Among the Hidden. Where do you think it takes place? When do you think it takes place? 2. Luke's family is terrified of the government. Why? What are some of the tactics the government employs to make ordinary families like his feel powerless? 3. Explore Luke's relationships with his brothers and his parents. How close are they? How trusting? Does Luke have more in common with Jen than with his own family? Why or why not? 4. The Internet made it possible for Jen and, later, Luke to connect with other hidden third children.

Among the Hidden: Bonus Information
HOME BOOKS ABOUT MULTIMEDIA RESOURCES BACK TO BOOKS Among the Hidden: Bonus Information Article written about Among the Hidden for China Connection, 2006 My husband and I knew we wanted to have children. We knew we wanted to have more than one. The question that stumped us was, “Do we want to have more than two?” In the summer of 1996, we had a 3-year-old daughter and a 21-month- old son, and we were beginning to have odd conversations along the lines of, “Are we done? No more backward-facing car seats, no more baby swings, no more baby spit-up, no more sweet, pre-verbal baby coos? Or—do we want another baby?” The conversations veered from the personal to the global, as we debated the impact of our one Back to Book decision on issues such as overpopulation and the earth’s limited resources. We talked about China’s One-Child policy. And though I’d certainly been aware of China’s population control policies before, that was the ﬁrst time I’d really thought very deeply about what impact such policies have on individuals and individual families. I began imagining what it would be like to live with such strict controls and limited choices—speciﬁcally, I began imagining a 12-year-old boy who’d had to spend his entire life in hiding, because the government of his country said he had no right to exist. And then I began writing about the boy, in a novel called Among the Hidden. Among the Hidden tells the story of Luke Garner, an illegal child whose entire life changes when he discovers the existence of another illegal, hidden child.

Discussion Guide for The Shadow Children SeriesAvailable in paperback ISBN: 9780689824753 ISBN: 9780689839085 ISBN: 9780689839092 ISBN: 9780689839108 ISBN: 9780689857959 ISBN: 9780689857973 ISBN: 9780689857997 ABOUT THE BOOKS Imagine living in the shadows, hiding your existence from almost everyone in the world. This is the plight of Jen, Trey, Nina, and all other third-born children. With their nation plagued by drought and food shortages, their government has made it illegal for families to have more than two children. Yet thousands of thirds exist without identification cards or rights of any kind. As these shadow children begin to discover and communicate with each other, their worldviews broaden. They begin to wonder why their government claims that they are the cause of all of their nation’s ills, and they question the worth of their leaders themselves. Fearfully, unwittingly, or angrily, these secret children emerge from the shadows to fight for change. The seven Shadow Children novels are told from the viewpoints of Luke, the beloved third son of a rural family; Matthias, the abandoned urban orphan raised by elderly moralist Samuel; and other third children. Their narratives offer readers differing perspectives on the compelling questions explored in the series. Should the government have the right to dictate the size of families or other aspects of how people choose to live their lives? In an age of televised news, how can one be certain what is really happening in the world and what is illusion—who is telling the truth and who isn’t? Can individual actions truly affect the future of a nation? And, ultimately, what does it mean to live in freedom? DISCUSSION TOPICS • Why do you think some families decided to have third children despite their society’s desperate circumstances and strict laws? Do you think that the benefits of having another child would outweigh the sacrifices that must be made? Why or why not? • Each third child comes from a different background and type of hiding place.

Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Among the Brave by Margaret Peterson Haddix Among the Brave
Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Among the Brave by Margaret Peterson Haddix Among the Brave. In the aftermath of a crisis that threatens the safety of all shadow children—illegal third-borns in a society that allows only two children per family— Trey’s friends expect him to take charge—a function he doesn’t want or think he can do. Trey’s new role leads him to travel with Luke Garner’s brother, Mark, to Population Police headquarters. There he impersonates an officer to try to rescue Luke, who has been taken prisoner. The nonstop adventure puts all three boys in danger and risks exposing the underground movement to help all shadow children. “A fast and wild ride that will appeal to reluctant readers. Once again, Haddix makes real how hard ordinary and not-so-ordinary actions would be for kids who’ve spent most of their lives hidden away.” — School Library Journal. “Trey makes an interesting, sympathetic protagonist, reflective about his past, convincing in his outlook, and fundamentally alone even among his allies.” —Booklist. Among the Brave. Trey may have saved Luke's life, but he still thinks of himself as a coward who can barely stand to be outdoors. Now Trey finds out Luke has been taken prisoner at Population Police headquarters. Trey is terrified, but he knows that if he doesn't rescue his friend, no one will. At police headquarters, Trey impersonates an officer to try getting to Luke. But just when it looks like he's close, Trey suddenly finds himself in danger of exposing not just himself but all shadow children.
