Description

Twelve-year-old twins Jake and Lily are inseparable. They share everything, from their interests to their sense of humour. But when they turn eleven, their lives change forever. Their parents announce it's time for separate bedrooms, and the twins are forced to confront the reality of growing up. As Jake starts hanging out with a group of boys on the block, Lily is devastated by her brother's new friendships. She feels lost without him, and struggles to understand why he's changing so much. Meanwhile, Jake finds himself drawn into the influence of a neighbourhood bully. As he navigates these challenges, he must also ask himself: who is the real Jake? This poignant story explores the ups and downs of growing up, growing apart, and figuring out who you really are. With its humorous and heartfelt tone, it's a relatable and engaging read for anyone who's ever felt like they're losing their way.
