Cally and Jimmy cover

'Your kids need this lovely book' Kate Beckinsale 'Warm-hearted, touching stories, full of fun but with a subtle message' Jacqueline Wilson Four stories in one! I have a twin brother. Everyone calls him Jimmy, which is sort of the English version of Dimitri, his actual Greek name. Our mum's Greek, you see. I'm Cally, short for Calista, which means, I don't want to sound big-headed or anything, 'most beautiful'. I'm not sure about Dimitri, but if Dimitri means most-annoying-brother-in-the-whole-wide-world, then that's him. Join Cally and Jimmy in four hilarious stories, perfect for newly confident readers. They get into scrapes together, bake some poisonous cakes, almost ruin their school assembly and finally have a twintastic birthday party.

"Twins bring double the trouble and double the fun... recommended reading and hopefully there'll be more adventures to come." -- Andrea Reece * LoveReading4Kids *
"Funny, touching, enlightening and ideal for newly confident readers. Black and white illustrations on every page capture the fun and chaos of life in a complex family." * BookTrust *
"Extremely relatable and genuine. Funny without being silly, and heartwarming without being soppy, Twins in Trouble is an excellent choice for parents and children (or even brothers and sisters!) to share." * Books for Keeps *
