I liked this book a lot. I keep it downstairs and read it while I am eating my cereal in the morning. Its about the Arnold twins, Carolyn and Marilyn who try to confuse Mallory and switch their identities. But the truth is, they don't like even dressing up like twins and stuff, they want to be their own seperate people which Mallory eventually discovers. So, this is a great book, enjoy!

When 11 year old Mallory baby sits for Marilyn and Carolyn Arnold, she thinks it's going to be okay. But when Mrs. Arnold leaves, the twins turn into horrible brats. Taking care of The Arnold Twins is a baby sitting nightmare. But Mallory's a responsible member of the BSC- and she's not giving up!

I read this book as a girl, and am sad to see it's out of print, but glad that I saved my copy. I've always found twins and large families fascinating, so this book was great. Mallory is from a large family and babysits twins, who turn out to be nightmares. I also loved to shop and they did that in the book. It was one of my favorites of the series.

Mallory is given the job of baby-sitting for the Arnold twins. They give her cheek, and confuse her. But then Mallory discovers that one of the twins has a mole, right under her eye. But they're not going to give up! First, Carolyn and Marolyn go to different classes. One goes to the other one's piano lessons, the other goes to a science class. But after a while they get sick of it. They are starting to get sick of being twins, being dressed the same, sharing the same room...Mallory has an idea. She talks to their mother, and then there's a sollution. Their mother has agreed to let Mallory take the twins shopping for new, and different clothes. Then they get their own haircut. What should they do about sharing a room? Yes, Marolyn gets the spare room and then everyone's happy! So, if you're a twin, and hate being dressed alike and sharing a room with your twin, then this is the book for you! Even if you are a twin, you can still have your own life!

This was my very first BSC book I read, which was maybe 4 or 5 years ago. It's very good. Mallory has recently been initiated into the BSC, and wants to prove to Kristy that she is a responsible, trustworthy sitter. So she takes a sitting job for the Arnold twins, thinking that it will be a peice of cake. She already has 7 other siblings. Simple, right? Wrong! The Arnold twins - Marilyn and Carlolyn- are distasters! They are identical, and drive Mal crazy! They hide from her, lie, get her in trouble, and switch their ID bracelets, so Mal can never tell who's who! Will Mal be able to prove to Kristy that she really is a good sitter, even with these two on her hands

I didn't think this book was so good. It was only ok. Mallory has to baby-sit for twins. The twins wear the same things, share a room, ( they even have the same stuff) In the end The twin realize that they need their own space. If you are a Mallory fan.... you should read this book.

I loved this book! It is about Mallory who gets a job to babysit for twins! She thinks it will be easy, but when the mother leaves, the twins go crazy. While Mallory is struggling, Claudia also has to battle them. Finally,using a special method, the twins are acting normal, but they tell Mallory that they want to be different. And with saying that, their life and Mallory's life changes just a little bit. :)

This is definetly one of the best BSC books. Its about Mallory getting a job for twins Marilyn and Carolyn Arnold Mal thinks it will be easy money but the twins are little brats when Mallory finds out the truth about the feelings about being identical twins will she help them out?
