Arabella and Henrietta Osgood may be twins, but they couldn't be more different. Arabella is social, has lots of friends, and is very pretty, while Henrietta is just the opposite. One day Henrietta's envy of her sister takes over, and her action gets her banished to Aunt Priscilla's house, where she's stuck making fish head soup. Arabella has nightmares about what Henrietta is doing at Aunt Priscilla's house, and this scares her into action. She decides she will rescue her sister and sets out on her adventure. Will Arabella find and rescue her sister? Will they begin to get along despite the past?

Opinion: 

Whether you understand sibling rivalry, or not, ''The Trouble With Twins'' is a book worth reading. The author makes you feel like you're right next to Arabella and Henrietta as they go through this part of their lives. The twins have realistic thoughts and feelings, like jealousy, anger, and love towards each other. Most of the events that the girls go through are not realistic, but this is what makes the book funny and keeps you interested. I am 9 years old, and I thought this book was right at my level. I wanted to keep reading more about these characters as their story was both funny and serious.
