It is about a girl, Leanna, who lives in 22nd century America where human clones and cyborgs are treated like second-class citizens, and what happens when she discovers that her parents are activists and that she is a clone. ReceptionBookList, in its review of The Clone Codes, wrote "The McKissacks' slight story for younger readers packs a great deal of messaging, which will no doubt prove useful in classroom discussions of issues and themes but sometimes comes at the expense of the story. The science-fiction backdrop serves as a framework for issues of identity and societal prejudice but is not predominant in the reading experience."[1] School Library Journals review was more critical, calling it "A clunky, didactic science-fiction allegory." and wrote "Some aspects of the plot are predictable and poorly drawn .. too many references to the distant past .. prevent the futuristic setting from coming to life." Nevertheless, it did conclude "Still, the fast pace, short chapters, and slim page count will make this volume attractive to reluctant readers, and the obvious curriculum tie-ins will appeal to teachers."[1]The Clone Codes has also been reviewed by The Horn Book Magazine,[2] Library Media Connection,[3] Voice of Youth Advocates,[4] Kirkus Reviews,[5] Publishers Weekly,[6] The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books,[7] and Multicultural Review.[8]It was an Iowa Children's Choice Award nominee.[9] References{{Portal|Children's literature}}1. ^1 {{cite web |url=https://bepl.ent.sirsi.net/client/en_US/default/search/results?qu=The+Clone+Codes&te=&dt=list |title=The clone codes |website=Buffalo and Erie County Public Library |accessdate=March 19, 2017}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Clone Codes, The)}}2. ^{{cite web |url=https://catalog.wccls.org/Mobile/BakerAndTaylor/Review?ISBN=9780439929837&UPC=&position=1 |title=The clone codes: Reviews |quote=Obvious historical parallels are heavy-handed and sometimes supersede the logic of the authors' future world, but the action-filled plot and sympathetic characters make this parable readily accessible. |website=catalog.wccls.org |accessdate=March 19, 2017}} 3. ^{{cite web |url=https://catalog.wccls.org/Mobile/BakerAndTaylor/Review?ISBN=9780439929837&UPC=&position=1 |title=The clone codes: Reviews |quote=This story, .. demonstrates the power of well-written science fiction. ..
