January's Book is The Secret of Zoom by Lynne Jonnell

Locked up in the house and forbidden to talk to strangers, especially the children from the nearby orphanage, Christina is bored. All she wants to do is explore outside her house and go to school with other children. One day, a boy from the orphanage named Taft manages to talk to her and helps her find a secret tunnel that lets her escape. With the help of Taft, Christina discovers what really is happening at the orphanage and how her family is involved in the sinister events on Starkian Mountain.
