Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares


I recently started reading Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants by Ann Brashares.  I think it is really fun how the pants fit and look good on all four girls.  So far, the girls have each just left home for the summer experiences, except Tibby who is staying home and has a job.  Her job is at Wallmans, which is like a Walgreens.  Lena and her sister just arrived in Greece to spend the summer with their grandparents.  Lena always imagined her grandparents as famous celebrities.  When she gets there she finds that they are just normal people and she will have to grow to love them.  Carmen is going to visit her dad and his new family.  Her parents recently got divorced.  Bridget is going to a soccer camp.  The girls have set up rules for the pants and will pass them from one to the other during the summer as a way to keep in touch.  Lena has the pants first in Greece.  I can’t wait to learn more about their adventures.  I wonder if they will meet other new friends.  I also wonder how their friendships will change while they are apart and how the pants will help with that.
