Description

Bestselling author Boni Ashburn and illustrator John Nez's picture book A Twin Is to Hug celebrates a unique sibling relationship.

Hand in hand, side by side, a twin is your friend. Every step of the way, from beginning to end. Having a twin can be great! With a twin, you have a lifelong bond, a partner in crime, and a food-I-don't-want-to-eat eater. But with a twin, you also have to share, and take turns, and compare. It's not always easy, but for better or worse, a twin is a friend who will always be by your side.

With a small trim and expressive illustrations, this package will make the perfect gift for the expectant mother or twin in your life.

"A lighthearted, rhyming celebration . . . the playful language and images will interest young readers who also face sibling ups and downs." --Kirkus Reviews
