Love this graphic novel. Give to fans of Raina

My 8yr old recommended this book, so of course I had to drop everything I was doing and read it immediately. It was the bright spot of my week. Beautiful pictures and darling story.

I think I will get this for my library! My own twins enjoyed it. Although I hope they don’t stop sharing a room

My new favorite Raina Telgemeier read alike!

A sweet middle school graphic novel about being a twin and going to middle school.

Twins Francine (call her Fran now) and Maureen are starting sixth grade and for the first time, they aren't in every class together. Fran decides to run for class president, and when Maureen finds out she can earn extra credit in a tough class, she decides to run too. This puts a bigger rift between the girls and friends are starting to pick sides or not hang out with them at all. Their parents and older brother try to help the situation, but the girls' relationship keeps straining.

A well illustrated graphic novel about many early middle school issues. The ending, as one can hope, is heartwarming and a nice wrap up to the story.
