5/21/2023 0 Comments The book of lost and found reviewShe brought a broom from home, swept out the leaves and gathered the trash. It was a place filled with empty display cases, empty frames, empty pedestals.Īt first, this abandoned building-one that was standing long past the demolition date posted on the front fence-became a secret place to visit and wander. She shimmied past the fence with a No Trespassing sign and found a broken open window that gave her access to the most fascinating nothing that Vanessa had ever seen. And one warm January day, EGL led Vanessa to an overgrown lot and weathered building she didn’t remember before. The rules were simple: You started walking and each time you came to a fork in the road, you took the direction you were less familiar with. She had started this new game called Explore and Get Lost, or EGL. That’s when she found an abandoned museum. She hadn’t given up on fixing whatever was wrong, but right now Vanessa had a lot more time by herself. But out of the blue, Bailey was hanging with some other girls, and they rarely got together anymore. And frankly, she had no idea why they had. It’s not that Vanessa wanted things to change. I mean, they did things with other kids, but for both girls there was only one person who was a must-have at any party, or the first one you always told a secret to. In some ways, they were each other’s only friends. Vanessa and Bailey used to be the best of friends.
