The Kidnapping Of Christina Lattimore

Joan Lowery Dixon is the author of the book "The Kidnapping of Christina Lattimore."

Lorna meets Christina late at the hamburger joint because of a strange telephone call. This suggests that Lorna received a call that was unusual or unexpected, which caused her to be delayed in meeting Christina. The nature of the call is not specified, but it can be inferred that it was important enough to disrupt their plans and make Lorna arrive late.

The correct answer is "spend the summer in France." This is because the question states that Lorna and Christina both want to go on a junior class trip, and the given options are different destinations. The option "spend the summer in France" is the only one that matches the context of the question, as it suggests a summer trip rather than a class trip or a language learning trip.

Lorna is best described as "proper" because this word implies that she conducts herself with appropriate behavior, manners, and etiquette. It suggests that she is well-mannered, polite, and follows social norms.

The correct answer is "was a very shy young lady." This suggests that Christina and Lorna became best friends when they were younger because Christina, despite being shy, formed a close bond with Lorna. Her shyness may have made her more approachable and relatable to Lorna, leading to their strong friendship.

The given answer, "Madame Dejon's co-educational school," is the correct answer because the question states that Christina and Lorna attend an all girls school, and "co-educational" means that both boys and girls attend the school. Therefore, it contradicts the information given in the question, making it the correct answer.
