Description

This bestselling first book in the Tapper Twins series is a hilariously authentic showcase of what it's like to be in middle school in our digitally-saturated world, told as a colorful "oral history" with photos, screenshots, text messages, chat logs, and online gaming digital art.

Twelve-year-old twins, Claudia and Reese, who couldn't be more different...except in their determination to come out on top in a vicious prank war. But when the competition escalates into an all-out battle that's fought from the cafeteria of their New York City private school all the way to the fictional universe of an online video game, the twins have to decide if their efforts to destroy each other are worth the price. In a starred review, Publishers Weekly declared "This uproarious series opener... is packed with both laugh-out-loud moments and heart."

Don't miss the further adventures of the Tapper Twins in The Tapper Twins Tear Up New York, The Tapper Twins Run for President, and The Tapper Twins Go Viral.

I could tell right away that my 5th grade students would enjoy this book. It's relevant and relate-able to their digital social life and the situations these twins get themselves into are funny but their actions have consequences. Which I think is an important lesson. I find that many students don't realize the lasting impact their actions online have in the real world.

The characters are also likeable. The twins, Claudia and Reese, are as different as any pair of siblings could be. And despite the "war", the fact that they care about each other does come through. Their parents are a distant part of the oral history, as presented by the characters, but they are definitely present and their contribution is pretty hilarious.
