 There have been many books written about sibling rivalry.  And you have probably read a few.  But not like this one.  Arty and Kurt Moore are twins.  They are not identical twins though.  Arty is a little person -- four feet two and a half inches.  And filled with anger at his twin.  Why did Kurt grow up normally but Arty is a freak?  For Kurt's part, he is angry with Arty for being so smart.  He can't forgive Arty for getting the brains in the twin deal.  When Arty meets a beautiful girl with a brilliant mind, he can't believe that she actually likes Arty rather than Kurt.  Is there more going on here than meets the eye?
