When 12-year old Sara Green gets a new homework assignment, she's scared it will ruin her chances to make friends. Sara's family isn't like other families in Portland - she has two moms - and her homework assignment is to present her family tree. Sara's brother Charlie wants them to make the presentation on their moms, but when Sara finds a smartphone with an app that can take her back in time, she gets the idea to go back to the day of her birth, and discover who her biological parents are. But where did the smartphone come from? And why do Sara and Charlie have it? Their journey connects them with a mysterious robot, who might have the answers to some of those questions. Sara and Charlie also encounter their biological grandparents, who might help them solve who their birth parents are. Eventually, Sara will have to choose between being true to herself, or putting on a mask for the sake of making friends. And - Charlie and Sara will both have to deal with the question: what happens if they change something in the past? The Time Twins is a time-travel adventure novel for fans of The Magic Tree House, Flashback Four, and The Secret Lake.
