About this ebook

Walking around New York City was what Mitty Blake did best. He loved the city, and even after 9/11, he always felt safe. Mitty was a carefree guy–he didn’t worry about terrorists or blackouts or grades or anything, which is why he was late getting started on his Advanced Bio report.
Mitty does feel a little pressure to hand something in–if he doesn’t, he’ll be switched out of Advanced Bio, which would be unfortunate since Olivia’s in Advanced Bio. So he considers it good luck when he finds some old medical books in his family’s weekend house that focus on something he could write about. But when he discovers an old envelope with two scabs in one of the books, the report is no longer about the grade–it’s about life and death. His own.
This edge-of-your-seat thriller will leave you breathless.

This book was very interesting to me, since I am interested in science. The storyline will keep your eyes glued to the pages as you try to imagine what is going to happen next. The plot of the story is very different from many other stories I have read and it really kept me on the edge of my seat. This book is also very appealing to those who like to learn about diseases and the history behind them. Besides being an entertaining book, Code Orange will also teach you a lot about smallpox.

I dont know what all you guys are talking about because i thought the book was awesome. I loved that mittys inner heroic qualities shined through in the end and i liked that they put the actual facts about small pox in the book. I personally did not like the face on the milk carton and i loved code orange but thats just me. I think you all should read it because its very suspensful and i liked it.
