LOST AND FOUND by Andrew Clements





Jay and Ray are entering the sixth grade at a new school, and each is feeling the frustration that their new classmates will not be able to tell them apart. Jay will be Ray, and Ray will be Jay more than they care to think about. However, things don’t go as expected when Ray comes down with a cough and a fever that keep him at home on the first day of school.

In their homeroom class, Jay is surprised when only his name is called off by the teacher. Shouldn’t Ray be called right after him? As the day continues, all the teachers do the same. No one mentions Ray at all. It is not until Jay accidentally notices a blue file with his name on it that looks twice as thick as everyone else’s that he realizes the two files have been combined. The school seems to have no idea that his twin brother Ray even exists.

As soon as Jay gets home after school, he tells Ray about his interesting discovery. By then Jay has enjoyed one entire day not being a twin. He’s even worked out a plan that would allow both boys to experience that wonderful feeling of being one of a kind. They can take turns attending school. One can go and one can stay at home. What can go wrong? Read LOST AND FOUND by Andrew Clements and find out.
