Book Review: “The Only Me” by Marissa Bader – Children’s Book for Twins

Joe Rawlinson by Joe Rawlinson - July 25, 2025

“The Only Me” by Marissa Bader and illustrated by Arlene Soto is a fun children’s book for your twins that dives into the interactions between two twin sisters.

The story highlights some of the things that are challenging for these twin sisters like identifying themselves as individuals, how they compare to their sister, and how other people interact with them.

The book has cute illustrations of the twin sisters and their activities and their interactions with other people. The pictures make it so your twins may very well find themselves being able to put themselves in in these girls shoes to relate to how they’re interacting with each other and some of the challenges they face

I thought this was a good book as it shares a story of how these twin sisters overcome their challenges.

As such it can give your twins some ideas of how they can interact with each other and with other people when other people treat them as “the Twins” and not as individuals.

Congratulations to Andrew V. for winning a copy of “The Only Me” by Marissa Bader.
