Read an Excerpt

CHAPTER 1

Livi and Grace are sisters, in their hearts and in their name, But they think it's odd when people feel they ought to be the same. For when they are together and you see them face-to-face, Livi looks and acts and plays the opposite of Grace.

When people ask, "You're sisters?" well, of course, they nod and grin, And then explain they're different on the outside and within.

Each of them is special — her own self in heart and mind. Each treasures her uniqueness and her sister's different kind.

Liv is neat and tidy, with perfectly styled hair. Grace is wild and playful, and she overflows

Liv wears classic dresses; tights and flats are to her taste. Grace wears lots of leopard print and leaves her boots unlaced.

The girls are both creative. Each has a special style, And they love to dream up projects that they take on with a smile.

Livi draws and sketches and makes art that's realistic. Grace sprays and spatters things; her work's expressionistic.

Livi wears her coat and boots when it's raining, you can bet, But Grace will leave without them, calling, "Livi, come get wet!"
