 The Anybodies by N.E. Bode is a book about a girl switched at birth. Fern an imaginitive girl lives with her extremeley dull and boring parents, the Drudgers. One day a man called the Bone comes to their door saying that Fern is his daughter and the boy that he has is the Drudger's son and they have the Bone's kid.

I would recommend this book to almost anybody. The Anybodies is a uplifting book, that leaves you wanting more. I would read this book over and over/ It has magic, drama, and a lot of mystery. Which is what I think makes up a great book The Anybodies is a great book everybody should read.
