Summary[]
Little Miss Twins answer the titular question, saying "No two people are the same. Even twins are not exactly alike. If you look a lot like your mom and dad, that may continue when you grow up. But it's not guaranteed! Changes happen all the time in life, especially when you're growing up. Either way, you are you! You are unique!" while sympathizing with the reader.
