Dawn and Charm, the "twin" Soul Sistas, are embarking on a new adventure: going to school. But why? the twins lament to their parents. They don't understand why they can't just stay on the Spirit family's beloved farm and play with the animals. Together, the twin sisters have everything they need in each other, even their own song and backwards language. Despite their parents' encouragement, the girls are not sold on going to school, especially after meeting Mrs. Osa. The principal of Sylvia Public School, who reminds the girls of a bear, decides to separate the twins, putting them into different classes. It's a learning experience of a different kind for Charm and Dawn, who each find their own place, following their interests while making new friends with "the boyz," two adoptive brothers who move in next door and go to the same school.
The Soul Sistas Go to School! (Too Cool for School?) is the second book in a series, following the author's debut, The Adventures of the Soul Sistas. The children's book has earned community accolades such as the Literary Titan Award in the children's book category, and the City of Pickering Cultural Diversity Award. It has also been adapted into a play at a local theatre.
