These read especially easy for YA lit. But the story is a great reflection for an adult. You can see just how sneaky these twins are and appreciate the trouble they get into. The morals learned are equally important for children, though.

I like this book because, I love to sell stuff, and in this book these two kids make there own store.
This book is a great story and I recomend it to anyone. This is an AR book, and is easy to me.

This opening book is sure to win you over. The twins plan on creating their own rare beasts to sell. All though it doesn't go as planned, it will make you laugh out loud.

Edgar & Ellen decide to make money by stealing all the pets in Nod's Limbs and turn them into "Rare Beasts"...then sell them back to the people of the town at an enormous price.... A plan that is sure to succeed.
Eh! not as good as the others I've read in the series.....

My kids liked this book, but I don't know if it would have held their attention if I wasn't reading it to them. I know I was bored with it. The main characters Edgar and Ellen were horrible, but not in any kind of captivating way. The story dragged...I won't actively encourage revisiting the twins

Nasty twins Edgar and Ellen, need money to pull even bigger pranks and think that selling exotic animals is the way to go. But is it just a coincidence that all the neighborhood pets go missing just as they open their exotic animal business?
