Valentin is fed up with his life as a twin, especially since his brother Nikita always seems to do everything better than he does. It's just not good when parents have a child twice! Nikita completely agrees with Valentin, and a fleeting thought leads to a bet between the two brothers. One morning, Valentin sets out to find an adopter. And indeed - the somewhat eccentric Mr. Zareba "adopts" Valentin, as he needs active support in his garden shed. While Valentin enthusiastically gets to work, Nikita starts to feel uneasy about the bet and tries to convince his brother to come back home. A humorous novel about the theme of adoption, insights into the emotional lives of twins, about helpfulness and caring for one another. A new installment by Nikola Huppertz in the successful Tulipan Kleiner series.
