![]() My kiddos, especially my oldest, loves graphic novels. And like the girls in the book, my brother and I shared all the same classes and activities until middle school.īut Twins was also inspired by my daughters. Just like Maureen and Francine, I’m a twin - five minutes younger than my identical twin brother. I’ve written a number of books, including The Parker Inheritance and The Great Greene Heist, but I don’t think I’ve ever written anything quite as autobiographical as Twins. Are sisters really forever? Or will middle school change things for good? My Thoughts on the Book Maureen and Francine are growing apart and there’s nothing Maureen can do to stop it. A girl who seems happy to share only two classes with her sister! But just before the girls start sixth grade, Francine becomes Fran-a girl who wants to join the chorus, run for class president, and dress in fashionable outfits that set her apart from Maureen. They participate in the same clubs, enjoy the same foods, and are partners on all their school projects. ![]() Maureen and Francine Carter are twins-and best friends.
