A fun children's book that see royal twin girls get seperated at birth, to find their way back to each other and take their rightful place.

A good range of characters and a few plot twists - entertainment between the more demanding and complex reads of late.

And a positive message within the pages for young readers- that quiet and reserved doesn't mean incapable. Appearances can be deceiving.

Tempted to read book two.

Appearances aren't always what they seam. That's the moral and focus of this story. I totally enjoyed reading the travels the twins embarked on and how different they are from each other. The book was fast paced and fun, but I feel like there should've been more action at the end to make it more exciting, but it seemed fitting for the twins.

I git this book for Christmas and really enjoyed reading it, however upon reading I realised it wasn't quite my cup of tea but it is written very well. I recommend reading if you are younger than 15 otherwise it's not intended for you. But if you like magic and a little mystery this is a lovely little tale to tide you over for a while.
