Double Vision (Twintuition Series #1)

by Tia Mowry, Tamera Mowry

Overview

From actresses Tia and Tamera Mowry comes the story of tween twins Cassie and Caitlyn and their discovery that they have the ability to see things before they occur! This is the first book in the popular Twintuition series.

When their mother’s new job forces them to move from bustling San Antonio to middle-of-nowhere Aura, Texas, Caitlyn tries to stay positive, focusing on meeting new people and having new adventures. Cassie, on the other hand, is convinced that it’s only a matter of time until they’ll be sick of Aura and ready to move back to the big city.

But being the new kids isn’t their only challenge. The girls start experiencing strange visions, and they must work together to change the future before it can happen.

Tamera is a host and producer on the hit daytime talk show The Real, currently airing on FOX. Together they’ve created a magical series about twin sisters with a powerful gift and an even stronger connection.

Editorial Reviews

Caitlyn and Cassie may look exactly the same, but inside they are as different as two people can be. On this they agree: the tiny town of Aura, Texas, is the last place they want to live. Caitlyn, ever the optimist, tries to make the best of the move. Cassie hatches plot after plot to convince Mom to return to San Antonio. Strange visions begin clouding the twins’ sight. To Cassie, this could turn into an opportunity to get in with the cool kids. Caitlyn, however, is convinced they should use their gift to help others. The person most needing their help is the last person they expected. Twins themselves, the authors know a lot about issues faced by identical siblings. Cassie and Caitlyn have two distinct personalities and two very different ideas on how to solve problems. Both struggle to craft unique identities to avoid being mistaken for one another in a way that any reader with siblings can easily understand. Told with a mixture of sass and poise, this story touches on the difficulties of finding new friends in a small town. It reminds readers that ultimately power should be used for the good of others, and that even moms need a little help sometimes. Reviewer: Kasey Giard; Ages 8 to 12.

Gr 3–5—Best known for their hit Nineties TV series, Sister, Sister, the Mowry twins now try their hand at kid lit, with a series about Cassie and Caitlyn Waters, identical twins with the ability to see visions. Told from the alternating perspectives of the two girls, this light and fluffy, if predictable, title is a heartwarming tale of sisterhood.
