Game Day

Author: Barber, Tiki

Ronde and Tiki are a team. They are twins, they are each other’s best friends and biggest fans, and they play on the same football team, the Cave Spring Vikings. Ronde is #21 and Tiki is #22, always side by side.
Tiki has had seven long touch-down runs this season, and Ronde is proud of his brother, but he can’t help feeling a little down when Tiki gets all the glory. If Ronde hadn’t been leading the way with his blocks, Tiki wouldn’t have been clear to score. Ronde thinks nobody notices the guy who blocks; they only notice the guy who scores. Will the day ever come when Ronde will get his chance?
Written by two NFL superstars, this story of
and teamwork will inspire. Barry Root’s glowing illustrations bring to life all the excitement and energy of a great game and a team working together.

Never Mind!: A Twin Novel

Author: AVI

Edward and Meg are like night and day. How could such different people be twins? Well, they are, but they don’t have to like it — or each other.

For seventh grade, brainy Meg is attending ultra-competitive Fischer, while freewheeling Edward goes to an alternative school downtown. But it’s just when they’re finally out of each other’s shadows that the trouble begins. Meg’s aspirations for popularity and a boyfriend combine with Edward’s devious planning and lack of singing ability to set off a showdown the likes of which twindom has never before seen.

Why is this final showdown so much fun? Could it be that Meg and Edward are more alike than they thought?

Black Fox of Lorne

Author: de Angeli, Marguerite

Vikings & Scotland in the 10th century.
From the flyleaf: “”Now we shall go a-Viking,” Harald Redbeard announced, and so it was that Jan and Brus, Harald’s twin sons, found themselves on the dragon-prowed Raven of the Wind, its striped sails set for the north of England. But storms, ancient enemies of the seafaring Norsemen, swooped down, and in their wake left disaster. Ragnhild, the mother, and her ship were lost, the Raven wrecked on the Isle of Skye, a stronghold of the giant Scot, Began Mor.

And that was how Jan and Brus met Gavin, the Black Fox of Lorne, and began the long journey that was to take them across half the wild land of Scotland, in search of their mother and their father’s murderer.

The story is like a panorama of Scotland in the tenth century after Christ. Loyal clansmen at war with marauding Picts and invading Englishmen; arrogant, powerful lairds – all move through a landscape of heather-topped hills, wind-swept forbidding castles. And among them go the young Norsemen, from croft to castle to battlefield, practicing the clever deception that saved their lives. For no one in this strange land knew that there were two boys, identical in appearance, and by the time the secret was revealed it had served its purpose
