When fourth-grader KC Corcoran sees President Thornton signing his name with his right hand, she decides that the left-handed president has been replaced by a clone. The story is quickly paced and the black-and-white illustrations are a lively addition, but the details about cloning fall short of the facts and the plot turns on a questionable premise: wouldn't the president and his clone both be left-handed?(Copyright 2002 by The Horn Book, Incorporated, Boston.
