Note: I received a digital review copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley. 12-year-old twins, Claudia and Reese, are at war, with each other. For the record- Claudia is making an oral history (audiobook memory) of it. She wants all the facts laid out, so in the future people will see that she wasn’t wrong for the things she did during “the war”. Of course, there's a dispute over who started the war. But Claudia knows it was Reese when he embarrassed her in front of the whole sixth grade during lunch. Reese didn’t think what he did was a big deal; it was funny! Either way- the war was on, and these two siblings would go to great heights to get back at each other. As the pranks escalated, Claudia and Reese had to figure out new ways to try to embarrass the other person. After Reese and his friend humiliate Claudia beyond her wildest dreams, she knows she has to destroy them. Is there any way she can use her brother’s love of online video games to ruin his life? Claudia is determined to find out. Who was to blame for the start of the war? Is it right to try to get back at your sibling, and how far is too far? Is there anything their parents can do to stop this war? Will it end before things get too out of control? You'll have to read this funny book to find out! The Tapper Twins Go to War (With Each Other) by Geoff Rodkey was a book I didn’t know much about when I saw it at the library. The format was unique, and I loved hearing from all the people who played a role in the war, like Claudia and Reese's parents, their babysitter, their friends, and of course the twins themselves. The story is told through texts, video game chat logs, screenshots, and narration. Reese and Claudia are an interesting pair of twins because they're different from each other. I like that Reese is more relaxed, and Claudia is certainly driven. As the pranks got out of control I worried a bit about how everything would turn out. The characters have great voice and their antics will make you laugh. As for who started the war (or who won it)- I think it will be up for each reader to determine. I would recommend this book to anyone in fourth grade and up who is looking for a fast and funny read. I hear there are more books in the series, so I wonder what else Claudia and Reese will be up to! This book is a middle reader book, but it is charming and funny enough for anyone to enjoy. I would be MOST enthusiastic to recommend it to a reluctant middle reader, because the writing is simple varied (sometimes in texts, sometimes on message boards, sometimes pure dialog) and the story moves quickly. But it is so cleverly written, and the characters are so likable while being so mischievous, that I think almost anyone would enjoy this book. I Included this book, one of the nutmegs, because it represents a useful exercise in literacy- that is reading stories told in non-traditional ways. It has useful context clues and such that tell more of the story than is directly told to the reader, by using these clues even young students can piece together the subtext to expand the story, these skills are essential to the ability to interpret and analyze more subtle works. I have a confession. I'm not a section of the target readers which would be "tweens." I have another confession, I loved the book! It describes the angst of sixth graders perfectly and it was a real learning experience. If you're a tween you'll be able to relate to it and if you're not you can learn a lot particularly about social networking and video games. So, either way it's great. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
