Category : Psychology

Pages : 173
Book Description
A New York Times Notable Book for 1998 Critical acclaim for Lawrence Wright's A Rhone-Poulenc Science Prize Finalist "This is a book about far more than twins: it is about what twins can tell us about ourselves."—The New York Times "With plenty of amazing stories about the similarities and differences of twins, Wright respectfully shows, too, how their special circumstance in life challenges our notions of individuality. A truly fascinating but sometimes spooky (Mengele's experiments with twins at Auschwitz figure among Wright's examples) study."—American Library Association "Like so much of Wright's work, this book is a pleasure to read. Because he writes so well, without pushing a particular point of view, he soon has you pondering questions you have tended to comfortably ignore."—Austin American-Statesman "Informative and entertaining . . . a provocative subject well considered by a talented journalist."—Kirkus Reviews

The Templeton Twins Make a Scene
Author: Ellis Weiner
Publisher: Chronicle Books
ISBN: 1452129894
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 266
Book Description
“The protagonists use their quick wit and brains to save the day . . . Irresistible and hilarious.” —School Library Journal With its kid-perfect humor and dynamic illustrations, the first book in the Templeton Twins series left young readers clamoring for more. This time, Abigail and John Templeton find themselves at TAPAS (the Thespian Academy of the Performing Arts and Sciences) where their father, the illustrious Professor Templeton, has been hired to invent a groundbreaking theatrical device. Once again, there is drama (of course!), silliness, and suspense, as the twins (and their ridiculous dog) must thwart the dastardly Dean brothers in order to save the invention as well as their father (and the dog). Oh yes, there is sure to be another recipe. This time for guacamole. Or is it coleslaw? “The intrusive, self-absorbed narrator hogs the limelight and keeps the vocabulary words and brainy laughs coming.” —San Francisco Chronicle

Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 240
Book Description
This special edition of The Templeton Twins Have an Idea: Book One also includes a sneak preview of The Templeton Twins Make a Scene: Book Two and a Q&A with the author. Suppose there were 12-year-old twins, a boy and girl named John and Abigail Templeton. Let's say John was pragmatic and played the drums, and Abigail was theoretical and solved cryptic crosswords. Now suppose their father was a brilliant, if sometimes confused, inventor. And suppose that another set of twins—adults—named Dean D. Dean and Dan D. Dean, kidnapped the Templeton twins and their ridiculous dog in order to get their father to turn over one of his genius (sort of) inventions. Yes, I said kidnapped. Wouldn't it be fun to read about that? Oh please. It would so. Luckily for you, this is just the first in a series perfect for boys and girls who are smart, clever, and funny (just like the twins), and enjoy reading adventurous stories (who doesn't?!).
