Review

Daisy, Lily, and Violet Divine are triplets but they are not identical in any way. They are all a bit different looking and they enjoy and are talented in different ways. This chapter book is full of adventure and challenges for each of the girls and the redeeming quality of the story is that the family, which includes the girls, their parents and grandparents, all pull together to help one another one and stand beside one another through thick and thin. A new family member changes the dynamic of the group in some negative, but mostly positive ways. Young girls, especially, will enjoy this story and, of course, twins and triples will get a big kick out of it. Sporadic black, gray and white illustrations complement the text.

Overall Book Score: good
