Jake and Lily

The book is about how Jake goes off to play with a gang of boys. Jake and Lily are twins. Lily can't  live without Jake because they have a special connection between them.  For example if Lily was at a friend's house and randomly yelled "stuck",  it could mean that Jake could be stuck in their back yard!They call their special connection "goombla". In the end Jake and Lily both meet new best friends. Some of the parts are sad and funny. At one point in the story Jake is being tricked into being a bully and calling people names that are different, I found this sad. But it is funny when Jake and Lily are blowing out their candles on their sixth birthday cake and Lily burps. I like how the chapters flip back and forth between two people. This book won the MCBA award.
