Book Summary
This middle-grade novel tells the story of identical twin brothers, Ray and Jay, who are often mistaken for each other, leading them to prank people by pretending to be the other. When a new student arrives who is an expert at finding things, the boys find themselves on a quest to locate a mysterious 'lost and found' item, forcing them to confront their identities.
