So many people have wondered, "Can one twin read the thoughts of the other?" This story answers that question for twin bears. Join So and Oh in their adventure as they come face to face with another set of twins.
Just over the mountain, not very far away, there lived two
little bears. One was named So and one was named Oh. They were
brothers and they were both as black as coal. Day and night,
So and Oh were together. They tumbled and rolled, pushed and
tugged, jumped and bumped.
So loved to play tricks on Oh. One day he
covered himself with leaves, lots and lots of leaves; that way So
knew Oh would never see him. But when Oh came looking for
him, So got so tickled the leaves overtop him shook and
crackled. Oh found him.
Quick as a fox Oh ran and jumped right in the
middle of the leaves! Kaplop!
"Oh, oh, oh," So yelled as Oh laughed,
"Ha, ha, ha!"
Then Oh said to So, "I found you, So!
You can't hide from me. I know how you think!"
"No you don't! We're different. My
thoughts are my thoughts, not yours, Oh!" So shook his
head as he ran all around Oh.
"But, So--we're twins! We can listen to
each other's thoughts without talking," Oh said.
"No, no, no--you can't hear me when I'm not
talking!" So held his cheeks as his head swung back and
forth. "Why sometimes even I don't know what I'm
saying."
