My Take on the Book
This was another great installment in the Hailey Twitch series. I have had the chance to read the others as well and my eldest daughter always enjoys seeing what kind of trouble Hailey can get herself into. This book does not hold back and instead you find yourself laughing and having a smile on your face the entire way through the book. The author should be proud of her collection of stories and this one leads the pack. If you have never read this series of books with your daughters you definitely should!
