When his twin older brothers are too busy working at competing lemonade stands and will not let him help, Liam does odd jobs around the neighborhood to earn money. - Perseus Publishing
Lister and Lester are identical twins who do identical things. But their constant striving to outdo each other means their little brother, Liam, is always left out. When Lesterâs Lemonade Universe and Listerâs Lemonade Multiverse open for business, thereâs no role for Liam. He does odd jobs around the neighborhood while Lister and Lesterâs competition spirals into overdrive and their lemonade stands get increasingly, outrageously out of hand.
But then Liam takes a stand with his own business venture â a simple model based on his observations of what not to do â and gives the twins a run for their money. Illustrated with lively cartoon-style art highlighting the hilarious one-upmanship, this is a spirited underdog story about siblings and strategic thinking.
