Ling & Ting Not Exactly the Same!

Ling & Ting Not Exactly the Same! By Grace Lin listed in the New York Times Notable Children's Books of 2010.

This story was engaging.  It was about twins that look the same, but they are not in many ways.  Ling and Ting went on the show how they are different in many ways.  Whether it was making a dumpling, to sneezing during a haircut, to eating with or without chopsticks, twins may look alike, but they are not.  They are individuals that are different in many ways.  Yet, they are always sisters.  The illustrations enlarge the story and show that even though they are twins look alike they are unique.  I believe that it is an adorable story for young children that not only identify similarities, but also the different aspects of our individual personalities.
