What a interesting idea of one child being replaced by another.
Told in two different perspective-from the main characters.
I liked the well developed characters and how they each tried to better understand what was happening to them and how to handle the information they come to know.
I felt bad for both boys throughout the whole story, each not sure if they fit in and the longing to know who they were before the change.
The struggle to survive mentally for each was sometimes overwhelming and heartbreaking.
I did like the ending and the realization each came to.
Makes you think.
