Lister and Lester are identical twins who do identical things. But their
constant striving to outdo each other means their little brother, Liam,
is always left out. When Lester's Lemonade Universe and Lister's
Lemonade Multiverse open for business, there's no role for Liam. He does
odd jobs around the neighborhood while Lister and Lester's competition
spirals into overdrive and their lemonade stands get increasingly,
outrageously out of hand.
But then Liam takes a stand with his own business venture -- a simple
model based on his observations of what not to do -- and gives the
twins a run for their money. Illustrated with lively cartoon-style art
highlighting the hilarious one-upmanship, this is a spirited underdog
story about siblings and strategic thinking.
