Lisa and Lottie

This German book was the source that the classic Hayley Mills’ movie The Parent Trap was based on.  It mirrors the two in that the girls meet in summer camp and switch places.  Also, there is a prospective woman for the father as well.  Other than that it is different.  The problem is that the composer father spends too much time composing in a studio across town.  He doesn’t spend enough time with his family.  Eventually, everything is resolved and it ends happily ever after.  I like The Parent Trap better though since it’s more spunky.
