The Mole People

Author: Jennifer Toth

Rating: ***

First Sentence:
"My ten year-old friend Kristen was the first to tell me about the mole people".

Hooked or Not Hooked:
Totally hooked. This book had me from hello. Who doesn't want to find out what's lurking beneath the tunnels of Gotham? And wait, why did this ten year-old know?

My two cents:
This book is a fascinating read about the homeless and about an entire community that's growing literally right under our feet. The author does a good job of presenting facts.
