PSGrowing Up Stories series.
Illustrated by
Michael Emberley.
Fictional twins Jasmine and Jackson represent the two-year-old set; factual information about typically developing two-year-olds is supplemented by a few extra bits on twins. With humor and understanding, Emberley's illustrations portray the (African-American) children's everyday triumphs and troubles. Their many activities are related in a straightforward, immediate text. The accompanying boxed information is aimed at older siblings.
