Laugh-Out-Loud Fantasy for All Ages

Ten-year-olds, Claire and Luna, identical twins, are almost one-star-witches. Unfortunately, they haven't quite made it yet. Hence, unlike most witches, they don't have their cats yet, and aren't permitted to do magic away from their Grandmother's - a five-star-witch - home. But that doesn't stop the two mischevious sisters from causing all sorts of trouble at home. When Claire and Luna find out that their father is marrying a woman whose name is - get this - Fluffy, the two girls believe that evil Fluffy will covince their father to move to her native Texas. So the twins decide to ruin their father's wedding, with a little help from their magic counterpart. There are many books on the market about young witches, but none as light-hearted and hilarious as Adele Griffin's WITCH TWINS. Claire and Luna are marvelous characters, whose wacky personalities will keep middle readers laughing out loud from beginning to end. Filled with heartwarming family moments, as well as pure fun, and strange magic, WITCH TWINS is something that can't be missed. Erika Sorocco Book Review Columnist for The Community Bugle Newspaper

A hilarious new fantasy.

Claire and Loon are twins -- and witches. Their grandmother is a powerful, five-star witch -- and they don't even have one star yet! Determined to get their first star, the sisters practice more spells to help them get more powerful. But they have trouble -- their father is about to marry a dreadful woman, and her name is Fluffy. Fluffy will make their lives miserable -- and the twins have to stop her. They don't know if they can use spells powerful enough to stop their father from marrying her, and it's a big risk -- but can they take it? Witch Twins is a hilarious new fantasy by Adele Griffin. It could have used more plot and been a little longer, but if you're looking for a great witch story, this new fantasy is highly recommended.

A hilarious fantasy that's a whole lot of fun to read.

Claire and Luna look like ordinary, ten-year-old identical twins. But they're not. The girls have inherited magic powers from their maternal grandmother, and are on their way to becoming witches. When their father announces that he's marrying his girlfriend, annoying Fluffy, the girls are devastated. They fear that Fluffy will steal their father, and possibly even persuade him to move to her home state of Texas. The desperate girls are denied help by their grandmother, who insists it's against the rules to change Destiny. Claire and Luna are on their own if they want to stop the wedding, but their plans will have unexpected and hilarious results. This was an entertaining, funny book that I reccomend to young readers who enjoy light, humorous fantasy novels.
