Booktalk #1

It all started with a rumor (someone farted in the cafeteria) and twins Claudia and Reese were at war. Through text messages, interviews, photos, and screenshots, the series of events in the battle are retold. The pranks are all fun and games until they have to deal with the consequences of their actions. (Connecticut Nutmeg Book Award nominee, 2018)

Booktalk #2

Twelve-year-old twins, Claudia and Reese Tapper, could not be more different. One day, what starts as an argument over a missing toaster pastry quickly turns into an all-out war when Reese humiliates Claudia at school in front of their entire class. Claudia decides that there is only thing to do - prank Reese in an equally humiliating way. Thus, begins the war: there’s some stinky fish, an embarrassing music video, crazy haircuts and an online trouncing. But are their efforts to destroy each other worth the price? (Garden State Children's Book Awards, 2018)
