As in the first two books, the gouache illustrations pop with vibrant color and texture. Lin helps emergent readers tell the difference through clever visual cues the pretend and “what if” scenarios are distinguished by squiggly frames. From forays into gardening (Will cupcakes grow if planted like seeds?) to musing about how high they can swing (Higher than a tree that goes into outer space!), the girls’ lives are grounded in realistic childhood experiences, embellished with their creative imaginings. Six short chapters deliver on the title’s promise each episode unfolds with pitch-perfect comedic timing, ending with a chuckle-worthy (and decidedly silly) punch line. *Starred Review* Those irrepressible twins are back with more sweetly goofy antics in a third installment of the easy reader series.
