Amazon.co.uk Review
Eve Karpf reads Jacqueline Wilson's Double Act in this unabridged three-cassette audio book. Identical twins Ruby and Garnet are inseparable. They do everything together and go everywhere together. They love being twins, and since the death of their mother they have been closer than ever, safe in their little world. But when Dad finds a new girlfriend everything in the twins' lives is turned upside down--new home, new school, new everything. And gradually, being twins isn't quite the same anymore.

In Double Act, Wilson brilliantly captures the pain and uncertainty that change can bring. This story of two little girls gradually realising that they have no control over what is happening is both funny and poignant. Wilson shines as the twins begin to accept that things will never be quite the same, allowing her characters to grow and develop as individuals without ever losing sight of the bond that holds them together. Running time is three hours and 40 minutes. --Susan Harrison --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

The story plot of the book Ruby and Garnet are twins; they live with their gran and their dad and the family live happily for a long time. However, with dad's girlfriend Rose, will everything change? Find out what happened to them when they had to move away to a horrible, little village by the country...

They miss their gran and really want to get rid of their dads girlfriend, Rose. They have written a diary telling you what they are doing, and this book is the diary. Ruby wants both of them to be an actress, but Garnet disagrees. She wants them to do well at school and in their studies so they can become clever. My favorite part of the story is when Garnet throws up on Rose and Ruby is laughing like mad. My other favorite part is when Ruby and Garnet try to confuse Rose by swapping seats with each other and doing things at exactly the same time so she gets freaked out.  Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
