Let's Get Together

Boston Globe-Horn Book Award-winning author Brandy Colbert gives The Parent Trap a modern-day update in this story of two girls--one raised by her single father, the other in the foster care system--who meet by chance...only to discover they're identical twins.

Kenya Norwood is not good with change. She's lived all her life in Southern California with her dad and grandmother; she's attended the same school with the same friends since pre-K; and she's always been the center of attention. And even though she's starting middle school this year, she's got a plan to make sure everything stays just as it is.

Liberty Perry has only ever known change. She's gone from one foster home to another ever since the day when she was just a baby, when her mother disappeared and never returned. When you've gone to ten new schools within her eleven years, it's not easy to get close to anyone. But Joey, her new foster mother, seems different. Maybe this foster home, this new middle school, will be different.

But neither Kenya nor Liberty is prepared for the moment they meet at their new school, only to discover that they have the exact same face.

Could it be a coincidence? Or could these two complete strangers have some sort of connection they never knew about? Kenya and Liberty couldn't be more different--but as they get to know each other over a school year filled with new family, new friendships, and new surprises, they find they have at least one thing in common: a single parent that just might be a perfect match for the other.
