This book reminds me of the book ¨Trading Faces¨. Trading faces is very similar to this book, ¨Lost and Found¨. In the book ¨Trading Faces¨ two girls switch places to avoid being humiliated. In ¨Lost and Found¨ they do trade places too. If you liked one of these books, then you probably will like the other one.

Later in the story, he finds a note in his lunch bag… it says “Tell the principal that you have a twin brother and he is sick.” He doesn't tell the principal. What’s going to happen next?

I really enjoyed this book. I think everyone should read this. But don’t ever not tell your principal if you have a twin at home who is sick! If you lie, or not tell anyone something important, there are always consequences. This book makes you learn about not lying and telling the truth. The theme if the story is to tell the truth, and to do the right thing.
