Looking for a Book or 2

Thu Mar 24, 2005 12:27 am

I'm looking for two books. My descriptions are kind of vague and maybe even slightly warped, but If I knew in more detail I'd have found them by now, and I've been searching for a while.

This one I read in grade 10, that I can't remember the title of. It's about a population who lives on an Island, I think it takes place on an Island at least. And the alphabet... letters are getting omitted from their alphabet. Does anyone have any clue what Im talking about, cause Im even confusing myself here??

Ok I read this in grade 7, takes place after some kind of Nuclear War I believe. These people live under Mount Royal, Im fairly certain they speak French, but the book is written in English. They have for a long time, and they have a very efficient city. Earthquake happens, kid finds a crack in the wall at end of the city that leads to the surface. Meets a girl who lives on the surface in a village. Ring a bell??

Do you remember if there was a bunch of kids, and one of them could play a piano, and the adults didn't want them to leave, but they took a few kids and left anyway?

cause I might know the book your looking for if the above is so.

It's an Author C. Clark book if so...
