A collection of happy little stories about a set of twins growing up in middle America, enjoying each other's company and coping with the trials of being four. I found the repetitive diction, presumably designed for 'easy' reading, somewhat stilted and jarring at first, but after a chapter or two it seemed to acquire a rather eerie, Pinteresque verisimiltude. I enjoyed the book more than I expected to, and it's provided a confidence-boosting read for a couple of my fledgeling readers.
