A flipbook about twins and their similarities and differences!"A colorful tale of twins who are not always identical. " - Kirkus Reviews From the author-illustrator of the bestselling series Zaza, Mylo Freeman! Mia and Molly are twins. They look the same and they like the same things. But they are also different in many ways! A lovely flip book about similarities and differences—and twins! For toddlers ages 24 months and up, with a focus on the child’s daily life. At Clavis, our focus is on what’s best for children. We believe that books play an important role in each new phase in life. Our toddler books are tailored for every stage from 0 to 3 and focus on the five most important themes in their life: daily life, skills, emotions, the world, and language development. The age range and theme of every book in our toddler series can be found on the back cover in the form of a colored train.
"A flip book introduces two Asian siblings, twin toddlers who observe ways they are similar and ways they are not. “Look—Mia and Molly are twins. They look the same.” This half of the book goes on to highlight ways that the twins are similar, focusing on shared preferences in objects and dress. “Today Mia and Molly are wearing the same clothes and the same shoes.” Fortunately for the sisters, the illustrations reveal that there are two of everything, avoiding any source of contention. Bright contrasting colors and textures add dynamism to the illustrations along with artful placement of patterns to surround text or give a pop to objects. Conflict does arise when Mia and Molly fight over one beloved toy frog. Luckily Mommy has a solution. At this point, readers flip the book over and begin reading from the back cover to delve into the differences between the two. Some instances are fairly superficial while others reveal personality distinctions: “Mia loves to laugh at silly puppets. Molly thinks they are a little bit scary.” (…) A colorful tale of twins who are not always identical. (Picture book. 2-4)" - Kirkus Reviews "This story is about twins who share a lot of similarities and differences. I love the visuals of this story and enjoy how these two sisters are described as having their own interests despite looking so much alike. This shows children from a young age that there are many things that make us unique but also unite us. Cute story! Perfect for those young, forming minds." - Pleasanton ISD "A sweet story, beautifully-illustrated. Two little girls, Mia and Molly, are twins. The first part of the book is about what they have in common. The second part of the book features their different interest and ilkes. For twins, the siblings of twins, and all little girls who like adorable picture books. Five stars." - Biblio Filer "This book was really cute and great for kids! I love that it has 2 books in one. The first being how they are the same and the other how they are different. I think that it can portray an important message on how people are both the same and different too. I also love the illustrations. They're colorful and cute." - Alexisse Pablico
