PS
The twins in this story have always shared everything, including a special blanket. Now that they're five, the blanket is too small. Which girl will get it? Yum neatly differentiates the sisters by giving each one her own side of the book; she also uses the gutter brilliantly. The text varies its direct narration effortlessly, pulling the book's audience into the drama.
