Twins: Volume 1

Product Information

There’s a surprise at the end…. you guessed it, mama bear is actually having twins! This is a fantastic book for a child who’s about to become a new big sibling to twins. Lovitz interviews adult twins, their siblings, and other specialists who work with twins to help you understand what it takes to raise twins who can also function as independent people. The girls are still figuring out their new dynamic when Francine decides to run for student council, and by some stroke of fate, her shy, terrified-of-public-speaking sister is also running for president. Despite the ground rules laid by their parents, things get a bit messy as both girls try to establish their personal identities while fighting to reconcile their relationship as twins and sisters. She started a blog that became a book, and she answers the questions identical twin parents have the minute they find out they are expecting two.

I don’t think I can say too much about this one without giving away too much of the plot - I went in completely blind and think you all should do as well. If you’d like trigger warnings please DM as this book does explore some serious topics ☺️ This was a pretty good book about two twins entering the 6th grade together. Although they are identical in appearance, the girls are pretty different. Francine is the talkative one, the social one, the outgoing one. Maureen is the more fearful one, the one who wants to stay with her sister all the time, the one who gets the best grades and the one who is the main character of the book.Cain, Sian; Lea, Richard (7 January 2020). "Guardian children's books podcast: Eoin Colfer on returning to Artemis Fowl". The Guardian. London . Retrieved 7 January 2020. It’s a fast-paced story that kept me up way into the night because I really wanted to know how everything will unveil and there were quite a few moments when I had to reread certain scenes because my theories were so out of place compared to what I was reading! Having a story about twins that isn’t about them being matchy or the same is one thing, but having one where they have real life challenges including fitting in, getting along with each other, struggling at something outside of your comfort zone, and more is a whole new level. This book wonderfully portrays those first few weeks of a new school level where you literally have idea how anything works and your teachers are constantly reminding you that “this isn’t [insert the elementary, middle, or high school you just left]” which isn’t really helpful cause YOU JUST GOT HERE, how could you know?

Twins Margo and Cora are very different. Margo, a live in Nanny, has always been the sensible and sensitive one. Cora, a dancer, is the wild one. I related so much to this story because I’m a girl, I’ve been through middle school, and I have a sister. I loved the full circle plot and how Maureen and Fran eventually learn that they can still be close while having different interests.Shakespeare was interested in twins. He included not one but two pairs of identical twins in The Comedy of Errors, as well as Viola and Sebastian in Twelfth Night. The latter are obviously not identical, but after Viola disguises herself as a man, they apparently become indistinguishable (some suspension of disbelief is required). This leads to all manner of comedic confusion. Of course, Shakespeare himself was also the father of twins, Hamnet and Judith. Hamnet died at 11, about five years before Twelfth Night was written, and this knowledge gives added poignancy to Viola and Sebastian’s reunion at the end of the play, each having believed the other dead.
