Free eBooks About Twins Available To Downloads
An imaginative (and imaginatively designed) book on a perennially popular topic. Some twins look alike. Some don't. Sometimes both are boys. Sometimes both are girls. Sometimes there's one of each. It's special to be a twin. Elegant photos plus simple, insightful text make About Twins the only book that lets young readers enter the close-knit world of twins. Real quotes from real twins plus a note from a parent and an introduction from co-author Sheila M. Kelly make this an ideal book for anyone who is a twin--or has ever wished to be one.

It is a charming book with beautiful photo illustrations. It carries a very simple but important message that even very young children can enjoy. It is my very favorite picture book about twins.
There are plenty of books about twins for adult readers; this appeals to young picturebook readers with a photo-filled account of twins and their differences and similarities. This much-needed book is a 'must' for any collection seeking family-oriented books: it helps siblings understand the different possibilities and personalities of twins.
I have given this book to both the preschool and kindergarten classes of my twin boys on their birthdays. Their teachers appreciate this book with great photos and captions. Many schools suggest sharing books rather than treats on special days. This book helps classmates look at twins as individuals and not a matched set, answers common questions, and opens discussions of single vs twins, and siblings vs twins.
