Brashares, Ann. Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. New York: Delacorte Press, 2001. 294 pages. (Fiction Series)Turning the pages of the book Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants you will find the main characters are Carmen, Lena, Bridget, and Tibby. These four girls are very close friends that live in Georgetown, New York. They always would hang out in the summer, everyday, until this summer where each girl is going somewhere. Lena and her sister are going to Greece; Bridget to Baja, California; Carmen to South Carolina; and Tibby is staying home. This is very hard for them because it there first summer apart. Each girl is doing her own thing with family or sports. What the “sisters” end up doing is sending pants (that magically fit everyone and are from the Salvation Army) around to each person, so it is kind of like having friends near without them really being there. On their journeys each person makes new friends and ends up having an interesting time- both good and bad. They also learn many lessons.
I will always remember this book as a good book and will always recommend this book to friends because there are so many life lessons that you can learn from this story. Also you really can’t predict what is going to happen next in this book which makes it much more exciting when it happens.
