It's all about Marketing! Why sell just one copy of the book to a family when you can sell TWO? One to the kid, one to the parents...now I don't actually know anyone who would buy 2 copies for one household, but I think it's along the lines of what they do with TV Guide sometimes (they have 4 covers for one week, of say, Star Trek characters, and they'll say "COLLECT ALL 4!" and why? Cuz they want our money! $$$$ KA CHING!
