![]() ![]() Between Maureen and Francine, kids will be able to relate to issues of academic struggles, friendship, self-confidence, and of course, sibling squabbles. ![]() I really enjoyed this story that is perfect for kids facing all the new challenges of middle school. ![]() Gradually, Maureen makes some new friends and discovers that maybe things aren't as perfect as they seem for Francine, either, as the two girls learn more about themselves and each other and finally breach the new gap between them. Suddenly, it's sister versus sister, with their joint friends feeling caught in the middle. Then, things get even worse when they both decide to run for President of Student Council. To top it off, Maureen is stuck in Cadet Corps, while Fran is taking regular PE, and Maureen is terrible at marching. Maureen feels lost in the new school without her sister by her side and is devastated by the changes. They've always been inseparable, but now, Francine wants to be called Fran, is in different classes than Maureen, and wants to establish a separate identity. Identical twins Maureen and Francine are starting middle school (6th grade) together, but suddenly, everything seems different between them. I just finished reading Twins by Varian Johnson and Shannon Wright. ![]()
