'''''The Troll Twins of Underbridge Academy''''' is a fantasy book written by [[Homer Simpson]], [[Bart Simpson]], [[Seymour Skinner]], [[Patty Bouvier]], [[Moe Szyslak]] and [[Jonathan Frink]].
 
  
After hearing about how many people write books to make money, Homer decided to do the same. He enlisted the help of Bart, Skinner, Patty, Moe and Professor Frink, and they started to write a book. {{Ch|Neil Gaiman}} also helped out by making drinks, food, etc. They started to come up with ideas and decided on a basic storyline of an orphan troll who goes to a magical school (the troll idea came from some kids who thought that Moe was a troll). They were going to go with vampires, but there were too many vampire books already.
