It's difficult not to like this light-hearted, fun story, even if the characters seem a bit anemic and the plot a bit dull and predictable. In the eyes of 2nd - 4th grade readers, however, this book is likely 'just right.' It's suspenseful, but not scary; intricate, but not boggling; fanciful, but not hard-to-relate-to. It's a nice change from the typical early reader books and a good book for the transition to more involved chapter books. The book, the second of a 4-part series, is O.K. for a stand-alone. One nice thing about this book was that it showed a young girl dealing with challenges in a positive way and learning from her foibles; there is always a need for more books with messages like this.

Great Series!! I am so thrilled ...my 7 1/2 year old just finished this book, and to quote her, "It was soooo good!" My daughter hasn't been very interested in reading for pleasure until she discovered THIS series. She spent TWO hours reading last night because she just couldn't put it down. I will be running right out tomorrow to get the third book in the series. Thanks Miranda Jones.

This book awesome! "Double Trouble" is a really great continuation of the first Little Genie book, "Make a Wish", which I have also read, and throughly enjoyed. It is extremely funny, and the story is really, really great. The pictures are great, and go really well with the book. I can't wait to read "A Puff of Pink"! I highly recommend this book!!!
