In Take Two, Payton helps her new friends out on the middle school musical and Emma puts her brains to use by tutoring—identical twin boys. But when the boys turn out to be double trouble, Payton and Emma’s worlds collide and lead to middle school mix-ups and mayhem. By the end, Payton and Emma realize that no matter what, they have each other’s backs (as well as faces).

"This is a well-paced story, with chapters alternating between the girls... kids will enjoy it."
–SLJ, April 2010
"The second book in this series, following TRADING FACES, is really cute. I love the emphasis on personal happiness as the twins struggle to find their own identities at a new school. Just a great, fun tween read."
