I would have given it 4 stars, but I just don't like intrusive narrators. I do think I'll read any further Templeton twins adventures, though. ( ) I don't know what I like best about this book—the cover, the antagonistic narrator, or the word puzzles. Or maybe it's the meatloaf recipe. Or the end-of-chapter quizzes, with questions like: 1. Mary has five oranges. She gives two to Tom. Tom buys twice as many as Mary has left and gives half of them to her. Who cares? 2. Why are some dogs ridiculous, whereas other dogs are utterly ridiculous? 3. Have you ever walked around the block? Would you like to do so now? The rest of us will wait here until you return. Or will we? It's a fun book, visually and textually. The Templeton twins are clever kids with an inventor father, so obviously some Caractacus Potts-style inventions come into play. And speaking of ridiculous dogs, the way the narrator talks about Cassie the Ridiculous Dog is my other favorite thing about this book. He calls her that as though it's her official name; toward the middle he starts abbreviating it to Cassie the R. Dog, and by the end it's C. the R.D., which just makes me laugh. Kids should find the book funny, and although the sarcastic narrator is a bit heavy-handed at times, it's still pretty fun for adults to read, too. I started reading The Templeton Twins, and 10 pages into the book I knew I HAD to read it aloud to my 5th and 6th graders. Now this was after I had decided I just didn't have time to read aloud to the students right now. But within 10 pages I knew I had to make the time, because I knew they would love it as much as I did. Why did I love it? Well the narrator for one! I'm not usually one to like books where the narrator addresses the reader, but this narrator is so hysterical that I very quickly got over that. But what really got me are the "Questions for Review" at the end of every chapter. As an English teacher I assign questions at the end of the stories, so to see how funny these are really hooked me. And I knew my students who always have to answer those questions would find them just as funny. The plot was fun and mysterious, so not only does the voice hook you in - the story does as well. I had to figure out how the whole thing fit together and how the twins would work through it all. Well done!!! So how did it go as a read aloud? Well judging by the number of laughs that happened as I was reading I'd say it went very very well. They really did enjoy it! When I'd stop for the day they would beg me to keep reading! I love books that do that. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

Abigail and John, the Templeton twins, and their dog Cassie, foil a pair of inept kidnappers intent on stealing one of their father's newest inventions.
"Pongamos que hay unos mellizos, un chico y una chica de doce años, que se llaman (respectivamente) John y Abigail Templeton. Digamos que John es pragmático y toca la batería, y que Abigail es más dada a la teoría y le gusta resolver intrincados crucigramas. iImaginemos también que su padre es un inventor ilustre, aunque a veces un poco despistadillo. Supongamos, además, que otros mellizos -ya mayores-, llamados Tom T. Timmy y Tim T. Timmy, han secuestrado a los mellizos Templeton y a su Ridículo Perro para conseguir que el padre les ceda uno de sus presuntamente geniales inventos. Sí, he dicho secuestrado. ¿No te pica el gusanillo? Anda ya, ¡seguro que sí! Pues mira, estás de suerte, porque este es el primer libro de toda una serie que es perfecta para chicos y chicas listos, inteligentes y divertidos (exactamente como los mellizos Templeton) a quienes les guste leer historias de aventuras (¡¿y a quién no?!)."--Agapea.
