Twins Sarah and Annie have little in common: Sarah is anxious and withdrawn; Annie is a beautiful pageant queen. Then Annie quits the pageant circuit and gains weight, which disturbs their image-focused parents. Told in both verse and prose, this quiet family drama addresses too many serious, sensational issues superficially; Sarah and Annie's gradual reconnection is more compelling.
