The Wrong Twin
Produced by Suzanne Shell and PG Distributed Proofreaders
"The Wrong Twin" by Harry Leon Wilson is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around the misadventures of twin brothers, Wilbur and Merle Cowan, set against the backdrop of a changing small town. The narrative introduces a whimsical and adventurous spirit, primarily focusing on the boys as they navigate the complexities of childhood, daring exploits, and encounters with local characters. At the start of the novel, we are introduced to the Cowan twins and their life in Newbern Center, a quaint town in the throes of modernization. The setting leads them to a graveyard where they attempt to pick blackberries, setting off a chain of events that highlight their innocence and imaginative thinking. This excursion soon brings them into contact with Patricia Whipple, a young girl of their social circle who yearns for adventure and wishes to run away from home. The ensuing interactions between the children reflect the charm of their youthful escapades, blending humor and a hint of mischief that promises a delightful exploration of childhood dreams and realities as the story unfolds.
