Description
Book: "Twins can look identical. And siblings or children may look similar to other people in their family. Even kittens can have the same markings as other kittens in a litter. But why? The answer is DNA. DNA is what makes family members look similar but also makes them unique. DNA is what makes you, well, you!"-- Provided by publisher.
