The Cheerful Twins and the Forest Fire by Arja Peters
An unforgettable children’s adventure full of courage, humor, and heart.
In The Cheerful Twins and the Forest Fire, identical sisters Ellis and Thelma Bongers once again find themselves in the middle of thrilling events. What begins as an innocent bike ride turns into a fight for survival when they get caught in a raging forest fire.
The mischievous twins, always full of energy, sneak their kitten Puk into school — much to the teacher’s frustration. But when they later witness a mysterious arsonist setting fires, they are thrown into danger unlike anything they’ve faced before.

Beautifully illustrated by Melanie Broekhoven and translated by Suzanne Braam, this hardcover edition from Uitgeverij De Eekhoorn is perfect for young readers aged 9 and up.
