Why We Chose This Book: Let It Glow

Let It Glow book cover

Aviva is a born performer. Holly has stage fright.

Aviva loves lighting the Hanukkah candles. Holly can’t wait to celebrate Christmas with her family.

When the girls literally bump into each other at their grandparents’ assisted living center, they learn that besides looking alike, they share a birthday and are both adopted! Aviva and Holly quickly hatch a plan to switch places and surprise their families with a big reveal at the center’s upcoming holiday pageant.

This is the first middle grade novel by #1 New York Times–bestselling author Marissa Meyer. Joanne Levy is the author of multiple PJ Our Way titles, including Small Medium at Large, Sorry for Your Loss, and The Sun Will Come Out.

The PJ Our Way Book Selection Committee is always looking for middle-grade books with sweet stories, good plot twists, and strong kid appeal, and we know how much our readers love a fun twin swap!

Let It Glow is perfect for fans of Double Trouble, Shira and Esther’s Double Dream Debut, and the classic movie, The Parent Trap.
