Illustrated by
David Hitch.
Lysander Singleton wants to be like the other students at Twin Oaks Elementary, but he is the only student who is not a twin. During the Twindividuation competition "meant to encourage individuality," independent Lysander shines and everyone sees his strengths. The empowering story will uplift kids without siblings or anyone with twin envy; Hitch's sleek art is light and quirky.
