About this ebook

'We're the stars of this show, and we're always going to be Double Trouble.'

Ruby and Garnet are ten-year-old twins. They're identical, and they do EVERYTHING together, especially since their mother died three years earlier - but they couldn't be more different.

Bossy, bouncy, funny Ruby loves to take charge, and is desperate to be a famous actress. Meanwhile quiet, sensitive, academic Garnet loves nothing more than to curl up with one of her favourite books.

And when everything around the twins is changing so much, can being a double act work for ever?

Me and my best friend decided we would read this and we loved it! It is very good and realistic and I was sad they were separated but it gave the story line an awsome twist! I reccomend this to the twins at saint clair fans and Jaquline Wilson fans! :D
