![]() ![]() ![]() And they don’t have perfect little families and perfect little friends. The rest of the girls’ lives – relationships with parents and their sister – also fills the pages of the tale. Yet this isn’t a story swallowed by what it’s like to live as conjoined twins. ![]() It was easy to imagine the terror that would come from imagining life apart from one another. I felt the companionship, dependence, and frustration it sometimes caused within the lines. Within the sparse, moving poetry that depicts each scene of One, Crossan establishes both Grace and Tippy’s individuality and their unity. Then their health takes a sharp turn, and the one thing Grace and Tippy have never considered becomes the choice that may save their lives. Two friends open a doorway to a life far more normal than they ever expected possible. When they’re forced to attend school for the first time after being homeschooled all their lives, Grace and Tippy predict the same ruthless gawking and cruelty from their classmates. ![]() Born as conjoined twins, they’ve never been apart, and they never wish to be separated. One pair of legs carries them, their arms looped around on another for support. It’s hard to tell where one ends and the other begins, even for Grace and her sister.
