Double Time: How I Survived — and Mostly Thrived — through the First Three Years of Mothering Twins. Jane Roper, $26.99

But she also didn’t anticipate how much joy, laughter, and self-discovery motherhood would bring.

The Early Birds: a Mother’s Story of Our Times. Jenny Minton, $17.95

In the winter of 2002, Jenny Minton delivered twin boys. She was thirty-one weeks pregnant, and her boys, conceived through in vitro fertilization, were more than two months early. Both boys were placed on immediate life support, and for sixty-four days they hovered, critically ill, in the neonatal intensive care unit of a New York City hospital. With impeccable restraint, in sharp, unforgettable scenes, Minton takes readers into the heart of an experience that is both singular and — with a significant increase in twin births over the last twenty years, and a commensurate rise in premature births — increasingly common. She offers moving interrogations of science and fate, and the role of providence in conception. THE EARLY BIRDS describes the glorious triumphs of ordinary life, even as it wrestles with the unanswerable questions that remain.

Mel & Mo's Marvelous Balancing Act. Nicola Winstanley, illustrated by Marianne Ferrer, $21.95 (ages 4-7)

Mel and Mo may look alike, but these twins’ personalities are far from identical. As they grow up, their differences drive them apart... which suits them just fine. Mel’s umbrellas fly off the shelves and Mo’s high-wire feats are the talk of their seaside town.

The twins are non-binary characters, adding a layer of diverse representation for young readers that can also serve as an entry point for gender fluidity discussions.

They can even have difficulty forming deep relationships outside of the twinship.

Twinsight: How to Raise Emotionally Healthy Twins bypasses the usual discussions on how to pay for two tuitions (a conundrum, to be sure!) and instead tackles deeper questions: How do you help twins feel like individuals? Should they be expected to be each other's caretaker? How can a parent avoid comparing? How can you encourage relationships outside the twinship? and more! Drawing on over seventy interviews with adult twins and their non-twin siblings, as well as expert insights from educators and psychologists and exhaustive research, author Dara Lovitz offers parents a definitive roadmap to raising emotionally healthy twins now and into the future.
