About

National Book Award Winner Robin Benway's debut middle grade novel is Babysitters Club meets Sandlot when twin sisters join a ragtag neighborhood girls softball team at a time when growing up could mean growing apart. 

Aggie and Jac might be twin sisters, but lately they haven’t felt the same about anything. While Jac is excited about their move to Los Angeles and a chance to seem cool and mysterious, Aggie is worried her new locker won’t open, Jac could make new friends without her, and her friends from home will move on, leaving her all alone.

When the first day at school ends with an invite to join the neighborhood softball team, Aggie jumps at the chance to meet the other girls, even if she has to drag Jac along. Aggie is relieved to learn that each girl is dealing with their own problems and discovers that by being vulnerable, she's able to create strong friendships.

Jac’s interest in the softball team might have more to do with the captain’s older brother. But as Jac’s crush grows she worries that it’s just one more way she and Aggie have become different. And is it wrong if Jac wants to feel different from Aggie sometimes, even if there’s no one else she'd rather have for her twin sister?

Jac and Aggie try to hold on to their sisterhood even as life throws the biggest curveball of all: growing up.

From award-winning author Robin Benway comes a fun and heartwarming middle grade novel about friendships, family, and discovering the person that you’re meant to be.
