What's Lost and Found About

Publisher Summary

Twelve-year-old identical twins Jay and Ray have long resented that everyone treats them as one person, and so they hatch a plot to take advantage of a clerical error at their new school and pretend they are just one.

What Questions Should I Ask My Child

  • Discuss how the boys were dishonest. What do "honesty" and "individuality" mean and why they’re important for Ray, Jay and each of us?

    The idea of having a twin and swapping places has always seemed intriguing, but Lost and Found does a great job demonstrating what such an experience might actually be like, along with teaching the valuable lessons of being honest and loving the family you have!
