A Big Hit
I just finished reading the
Basker
Twins
in the
31st
Century
as a critique of age level appropriateness and interest for older elementary students. What I found was that it was hard to put down and feel that adults would enjoy this as much as elementary and pre-teens. An elementary teacher or parent may enjoy reading this to the class and introduce it by brainstorming what the future may be like and what could be possible in the next century. Topics of cloning and the moral/ethical issues would be good for debates and discussions. I'm eagerly awaiting the next book in the series. Kristi Wright is going to be a very popular writer and deserves to be commended for donating a majority of the proceeds to fighting a dreadful childhood disease, Friedreich's Ataxia.

Exciting read and very creative writing
I found the adventures of the
Basker
Twins very
engrossing and made for a very exciting visual read. Kristi Wright is a very creative writer with a vivid imagination of the
31st
century
that incorporated fun and impressive technology, and yet not unlike today, with people and
clones learning
to live together in harmony. A very fun, exciting and page turning read for all in the family.

Exciting Adventure in the Future
What fun to escape into this creative world of the future! I fell in love with the children who are the main characters. They became real to me. I couldn't wait to read each chapter to find out what would happen next. My high-school-age niece and her friends loved this book, too. It will definitely appeal to Harry Potter fans. I hope there will be a sequel!

Wonderful book!
The
Basker
Twins
in the
31st
Century
is a great book for school aged kids (pre-teens would love it!) My family really enjoyed the book because of the creative future world, the time travel and the mystery. The characters in the book are very interesting and although in the 31st century they deal with issues kids face today. I also like that much of the profit from the book goes to a worthy cause. Looking forward to the next story in the series!
Unique, Witty and Wonderful!
I was delighted to read Kristi Wright's book. Her first book, The
Basker
Twins
in the
31st
Century
:
Danger
at the
Clone
Academy
, is very unique, imaginative and fun! A strong story and vivid vocabulary are sure to keep readers of all ages entertained. It is a perfect book for both fans of the Artemis Fowl series and fans of the Harry Potter series to enjoy. SUPER!

When twelve-year-old
twins
, Elsie and Everest, are forced to attend their uncle's boarding school for
clones while
their parents are off-world on a secret mission, little do they expect to have a
dangerous adventure
themselves. The year is 3002, the place is Northern California, and on the surface, thirty-first-
century Earth
is a virtual paradise with no war, violent crime, homelessness, poverty, or disease. But underneath the pretty façade, greed and deception still exist. Someone at the clone
academy
is smuggling artifacts from the twenty-first century for outrageous profit. The students are being used as cover for this reprehensible abuse of time travel for personal gain. Elsie and Everest must overcome the clones' initial distrust and dislike so that they all can band together to fight a common enemy. Life gets even more complicated when the
Basker
s and the clones find they've transplanted a twenty-first-century kid to the thirty-first century. Now the students have to stop the bad guys without irreparably altering history as they know it.
