The City of Ember by: Jeanne DuPrau

Imagine what it would be like if you lived in a city underground. It would be a very, very, limited life, right? That's what it's like to live in Ember. It's a grand city that has hundreds of people that don't even know what the sun is! But they survive with 1 light source, the generator. If it's not working, then the city can get 'blackouts' and none of the lights work. But two people believe that there is another city. Doon Harrow and Lina Mayfleet. As they try to escape Ember, They read a map made by the Builders, but Lina's very sick grandma tears it up. Do Lina and Doon make it out of Ember, or does the evil mayor catch them? Read The City of Ember to find out!
