About the Book



From the bestselling author of "Wicked" comes an early novel--a funny, heart-wrenching story of a 12-year-old orphan who has never been adopted because of her physical handicap and difficult personality, who is shocked to discover she has an identical twin sister living nearby.



Book Synopsis



This is the incredible story of an orphan who discovers a twin she never knew she had.



From the Back Cover



She's a skinny orphan. She's never been able to hear too well. And she can't speak too well, either. The only person who seems to care for her--one of the nuns at the orphanage--gets taken away from Alice in a freak accident.

And then one day somebody calls Alice by the wrong name.

Miami, she says.

Miami Shaw.

Miami Shaw, who may be Alice's twin sister.

Who lives only a few miles away.

Who has what Alice has always dreamed of--a whole wonderful family. But is there a place in that family for Alice?
