Some teachers have said . . .
This summer, my English Learner students read Limo for Two? After taking turns reading the short story about twin brothers, students worked in groups to answer the questions at the end. The questions led to some lively discussions and debates about honesty, family, middle school friendships, and relationships with teachers.

Some young readers said . . .
I liked the story because it talks about friendship and family…
… you wondered what you would do in the same situation.
I liked this book because it was pretty easy to read and it was good, the book had lots of things that junior high kids go through, and it also shows how they solved their problems.
