Book Reviews of Just Like Me (Revised Edition)
Book Review: Wonderful conversation starter for young twins
Summary: 5 Stars
I got Just Like Me for my identical twin daughters when they were three and a half. Six months later, it continues to be a favourite, requested often by name. They've even taken it to daycare to share with their friends. The first half of the book shows the ways in which Julie and Jennifer are similar; you can always tell who is who because one wears pink, and the other purple. The second half of the book talks about the ways in which they are different. The takeaway message is that they may look the same and share some likes and dislikes, but they are distinct people.
The simple repetitive structure and pastel line drawings are perfect to hold an infant's attention and to help new readers learn to recognize words. My daughters now recognize the words "just", "not", "like" and "me" out of context, thanks to this book.
My daughters are often mistaken for one another, and constantly hear strangers asking about how they're different or how to tell them apart. Just Like Me has given me a fantastic tool with which to frame my conversations with my daughters about their similarities and differences, and why so many people ask questions about their twinhood. I'm actually buying several copies of this book to give to other pairs of twins as birthday presents, along with Twin Spin - Tunes for Twins.
