"No matter the predicament, Hurwitz interjects both humor and warmth.
Accompanied by illustrations as playful as Arlene and Ilene, this
chapter book is a t-winning choice." -- Kirkus Reviews
***Second-graders Arlene and Ilene Kelly are twins -- identical twins to
be exact -- and they love being a pair. But being a twin is not always
easy. When a set of triplets comes to school, Arlene and Ilene wonder
whether triplets are more special than twins. And when Arlene gets sick
and has to visit the hospital, the twins each find out what it's like to
be one instead of two. But whether they're together or apart, Arlene and
Ilene know they're lucky to have each other.
