There was no girl anywhere in the book and those boys were definitely not in that kind of shape EVER during the book. Good grief! The boys were actually pretty dumb and lucked out in not getting eaten by lions or cannibals. The only smarts they showed was in befriending their fellow captives. If they weren't related to Tarzan, they would have been dead ducks anyway. Not particularly likeable characters, not one of his better plots. I think he was phoning it in with this one. ( ) Los gemelos de Tarzán, como todos los gemelos de buena conducta, nacieron el mismo día; y aunque no eran tan iguales como dos gotas de agua, se parecían lo bastante para cumplir ese particular requisito de la condición gemelina; pero aún en esto empezaban quebrantando las reglas que vienen gobernando a los gemelos durante los varios millones de años transcurridos desde que el mundo es mundo, porque Dick tenía una pelambrera del negro más negro, al paso que el pelo de Doc era del rubio color del azúcar cande de melaza. Sus narices eran iguales, iguales sus ojos azules, e iguales también sus barbillas y sus bocas. Acaso los ojos de Doc titilaban con un poco más de viveza y su boca sonreía algo más que la de Dick, porque la sonrisa y las titilaciones oculares de Dick eran interiores, y por dentro, los muchachos se parecían mucho en realidad. inga recensioner | lägg till en recension

When they were fourteen years old, Dick and Doc were attending an excellent English school where there were a great many future dukes and earls and arch-bishops and lord mayors, who, when they saw how much Dick and Doc resembled one another, called them "The Twins." Later, when they learned that Dick's father was distantly related to Lord Greystoke, who is famous all over the world as Tarzan of the Apes, the boys commenced to call Dick and Doc "The Tarzan Twins" - so that is how the nickname grew and became attached to them. As everyone knows tar means white in the language of the great apes, and go means black, so Doc, with his light hair, was known as Tarzan-tar and Dick, whose hair was black, was called Tarzan-go. It was all right to be called Tarzan-tar and Tarzan-go, until the other boys began to make fun of them because they could climb trees no better than many another boy and, while they were fair in athletic sports, they did not excel. It was right there and then that Dick and Doc decided that they would live up to their new names, for they did not enjoy being laughed at and made fun of, any more than any other normal, red-blooded boy does.
