Lost and Found
Bob Shafran was happy. He was at a new school, and the other students were friendly. “Hi Bob!” they said. But some students said, “Hi, Eddy!” Bob didn’t understand. He asked another student, “Why do some students call me Eddy?”
“Oh, that’s easy to explain,” the student said. “Eddy Galland was a student here last year. Now he goes to a different school. You look like Eddy. Some students think that you are Eddy.”
One day Bob met Eddy Galland. The student was right. Bob looked like Eddy. Bob and Eddy had the same color eyes and the same smile. They had the same dark, curly hair. They also had the same birthday. And they both were adopted.
Bob and Eddy found out that they were twin brothers. Soon after the boys were born, the Shafren family adopted Eddy, and the Gallan family adopted Eddy. Bob’s family never told him about Eddy, and Eddy’s family never told him about Bob.
Later Bob and Eddy found out that they had another brother. His name was David Kellman. Bob and Eddy met David.
David looked like Bob and Eddy. He had the same color eyes and the same smile. He had the same dark, curly hair. He had the same birthday. And he, too, was adopted.
Why did David look like Bob and Eddy? Why did he have the same birthday? You can probably guess. Bob, Eddy and David are triplets.
