The Tapper Twins Go To War (with each other), by Geoff Rodkey, is a quick read and a book that will appeal to the tween set.The plot is fairly simple. After eating Kai Kra Prow Chicken the night before, Reese--angry about who ate the last Pop-Tart for breakfast--mortifies his sister Claudia during a particular awkward moment at school (by loudly naming her Princess Farts-A-Lot. I will not elaborate further on this.) When Reese won't back down or apologize, the situation degrades into an all-out war, where Claudia and Reese try to get back at eachother tit for tat. Instead of writing the book straight out, Rodkey opts for a more compelling option: he has his character Claudia write it as a combination scrapbook and oral history. The result is a multimedia production that is as funny as it is engaging to the reader.Rodkey, author of Daddy Day Care, the 2006 movie remake of The Shaggy Dog, and Disney Channel's Good Luck Charlie Christmas special, is no stranger when it comes to writing for kids. He has a knack for snappy and clever prose, but what really shines is his ability to connect to both the kids and adults who read the book. This book is clearly aimed at tweens, with the 6th or 7th grade equivalents of taboo but die-on-the-floor-laughing references--e.g. Princess Farts-A-Lot--but still has real appeal for adults,who will laugh at some of the same things that the kids will find funny but for entirely different reasons--e.g. the transcribed text messages between the Tapper Twins' very addled, often confused and abused parents. Kids will revel one level of meaning of the prose, pictures, and cartoons and adults will also be able to laugh when they look at the events of the book from a parent's perspective. That speaks volumes for Rodkey's writing talent.
