"Twins’ Walkie-Talkie Chronicles" is a heartfelt middle-grade memoir chronicling twins Zieozi and Phoenix Olen's cross-country move from California to Massachusetts. Written primarily from 13-year-old Zieozi's perspective, the narrative follows the family (including their beloved German Shepherds, Sheba and Shaka) as they travel across fourteen states. The twins communicate between cars via walkie-talkies, creating an engaging framework for documenting their adventures, mishaps, and personal growth. From desert heat to tornado warnings, hotel chaos to family history, the journey transforms their understanding of "home" and prepares them for new beginnings in New England.
