This cute 74-page book is the first chapter in a new series of children's books featuring brother and sister Barton and Nancy Jamison (possibly twins but the books don't dwell on their ages) and their alien twin clones Beta and Gamma from the planet Ungapotch. Beta is the clone of Barton and Gamma the clone of Nancy - the only physical differences are the tin foil wrapped around the aliens.
Written by comic writer H.B. Homzie, the books are good reading for ages 7-12. The first book is out already and is entitled 'Two Heads Are Better Than One'. The second book is due out in November and is entitled 'Who Let The Dogs Out?' Both books are illustrated by Matt Phillips.
'Two Heads Are Better Than One' introduces the main characters and centers around a baseball playoff series that Barton/Beta are participating in. It is chock-ful of misadventures that the aliens cause due to their too-literal interpretation of the English language.
We recommend either book (well we haven't read the second one yet but if it's like the first one, we think your kids will enjoy it). They're available from Amazon.Com at the links below for just $3.99 apiece.
