Hello! My name is Henry. I have a twin brother, Greg. We are like two peas in a
pod. The only feature that makes Greg different from me is the tiny brown mole
on the left side of his neck. We may look very much alike in appearance but we
have very different personalities.
An introvert, Greg prefers indoor activities such as reading and listening to
music. His presence is hardly noticed as he is as quiet as a mouse. I am the
total opposite. I am an active person. I love all outdoor activities especially
swimming and hiking. Many of my friends and relatives feel that I am as
talkative as a magpie. However, I am not bothered by this comment. I feel that
my chatty nature makes up for Greg’s quietness.
Greg and I do have something in common. Our eyes brighten up with
delight whenever Mother bakes our favorite snack – chocolate chip cookies.
Enjoying this treat is perhaps the only thing we do together.
