The City of Ember reviewed by Leila I

The City of Ember by Jeanne DuPrau is about a mission between two twelve-year old children, Doon Harrow and Lina Mayfleet, to find somewhere beyond Ember. Ember is known to be a dark city, powered by lights. Unfortunately, Mayor Cole, the leader of Ember, is clearly hiding something from the citizens of Ember, and Lina and Doon need to find out. Read the book to see if they will be able to expose the Mayor to all of Ember.


I really loved reading this book. It was exciting, action-filled, and very well written. I would recommend this book to boys and girls, all over the world. Enjoy!
