The Twin in the Tavern

This was another cute children's book by Barbara Brooks Wallace. It's about an orphan. (Wallace likes to write about them.) He works for two scummy villains and finds a boy need Beetle who works for them. The two of them barely live off the scraps of the place. Taddy remembers something he heard about him having a twin. But not everything is as it seems. The ending was wrapped up nicely. I read Wallace's Cousins in the Castle, which had an ending which wrapped up nicely too. Except this time there's a nice twist about the twin part of the story I wasn't expecting. There's a lot of chemistry between the characters Beetle and Taddy.
