Review:
Stella
and Paige are twin sisters. One has brown hair and the other has blonde hair.
Stella loves her sister but has a hard time coping when people try to lump them
together as if they were one person. Her aunt Josie buys them twin outfits each
year for their birthdays and the soccer coach refers to them as one by their last
names.
Stella began to doubt that she could be her own person and have things she was good at like her sister Paige. She knew there were a lot of things Paige did that were good like throwing a ball harder, she got invited to all of the birthday parties and her handwriting was the best too. Stella took a moment to think of the things she did well, and one thing came to mind, she gave the best hugs, and all of her friends told her so. But is there more to Stella than that?
Author Marissa Bader has created a great book that shares how to be your own person especially if you are a twin. Colorful and lively illustrations by Arlene Soto are fun and engaging. Parents and teachers can use this as a tool to teach young readers about being themselves and finding what they do best.
