#2-Marci’s twin brother
What Marci said that proved she did not have a twin brother
In my book, I asked you to figure something out. Here’s what I wrote:
Once I started writing this story, I realized I should’ve known a lot sooner that Marci didn’t have a brother. Earlier in the summer she had said something that proved she was an only child, but I didn’t catch it. Did you? The answer is on my website.
Did you figure it out? If not, read this. It’s from page 36.
“This is Marci’s first year at camp. She’s from New York City,” Lana said.
“It’s called the Big Apple,” Marci explained.
I knew that.
“You’re Georgie, right?”
Georgie nodded.
Marci stuck out her hand. Georgie looked at me, then sort of extended his hand. Marci shook it vigorously. She talked fast.
“Lana told me a lot about you, Georgie. You live with your dad, and you want to be a cartoonist or a Navy jet pilot. Me? I live with my mom. She’s a pediatrician. That’s what I want to be, too. I like cartoons. I don’t know much about jet planes.”
The answer is in there. Think about it before you read ahead.
Ready for my answer?
Here’s the way I determined Marci had lied about having a twin brother. She’d said, “I live with my mom.”
If she lived with both parents, she would’ve mentioned her dad. And if she had a twin brother, don’t you think she would’ve mentioned that?! Of course, if her parents were divorced, her twin brother Marcus could’ve lived with Marci’s dad, but I figured twins almost always stay together no matter what, so I just took a chance.
Any comment?
i did not even notice that!!!
Well I think that was a good twist because now it makes sense to me.
I would expect twins to stay together. This makes sense, I guess.
Still does not make sense. If she lives with her mom she could have had a dad before that happened. Marci and Marcus still could have been twins
You’re kind of right. That’s why I wrote, “Of course, if her parents were divorced, her twin brother Marcus could have lived with Marci’s dad, but I figured twins almost always stay together no matter what, so I just took a chance.”
I can’t believe she lied/tricked you!
Wait wait wait!why did she ask you to go into the computer?Sorry, i am still reading the book.
hmmmmmm……….. i should have known!
i have a sister i am one of the people that ordered books
if you look closer and remember what i look like next year look at my sister shayleigh don’t we look alike!
Oh,Thanks for telling me.At first I thought it was that she said it was her first year of camp.Also,she said that her brother had been going to camp for a long time
I have a twin sister, I’m a boy, I agree with always staying togther
I think you are right but you should ask her or Lana.
i should haVE figured that out
I have a sister and she’s not my twin. But we look a lot a like and Im almost always with her. Even when she goes to her friends house. I am 11 and she is 9
That’s what I got! Who wouldn’t mention their twin brother? That would be like not mentioning you have a third leg!
I am reading Book one
not ture
i know people that don’t live with there sibling 🙂
so
Not always true. My friend has a twin sister and they don’t live together!!! 🙂
Well, you are completely right. I guess my guess was more lucky than completely smart.
I have a twin and we live together.
cool
I Have sort of the same story

In the book when you asked if we caught it i looked back and i saw that too. it proves a lot!!!
