Code Orange Book Review

I recently finished reading Code Orange, by Caroline B. Cooney. Overall, I loved the book, and recommend it for anyone in sixth grade or above. Code Orange is about a boy named Mitty Blake, who while searching in his family's library one day discovered scabs from the variola major outbreak of the 1800's. Because variola major-commonly known as smallpox-is a highly contagious disease, when Mitty handled the scabs, he brought the disease back to present times, and endangered everyone in New York City. Code Orange is a great book with a strong plot, and many twists and turns that will keep you guessing until the very end. Pick up a copy today!!!
