Code Orange

By Caroline B. Cooney

     Mitty was an average high schooler in New York City. As usual he hated school. His science teacher assigns a project on infectious diseases and Mitty chooses small pox. He looks through his mother's library and finds books about small pox epedemics. In one of the books was an envelope containing small poxs scabs. After picking them up and examining them closly, he puts them back. After doing more research he learns he might have just infected himself with small pox. Read about the dangers of Mitty's adventure with what started out as a science project.

     I am in love with Caroline B. Cooney's work. She is amazing.
I give this book a 5 out of 5 * * * * *
