Once there was a pair of pants. Just an ordinary pair of jeans. But these pants, the Traveling Pants, went on to do great things. This is the story of the four friends who made it possible.
Lena: Accompanies the Pants on their stay in Greece. But in a moment without any pants, she sparks a chain of events in which the person she suddenly distrusts most is herself.
Tibby: Invites the Pants to cameo in her suckumentary about the lameness of her hometown, then lends them to a kid who's about to star in the most surprising scenes.
Bridget: In an act of Pants bravado, tries to sneak them onto a soccer field in Baja California . . . and hopes they'll help her make a conquest in love.
Carmen: Is ashamed as the Pants witness her transformation from the saucy Carmen Carmeena into the wicked stepdaughter when her summer vacation doesn't go as she planned.
Quirky, irreverent, and written from the heart, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants is the story of four best friends, the biggest summer of their lives, and the magical pants that bring it all together . . . an extraordinary celebration of life, laughter, roots, and self-discovery.
Back Cover:
1. You must never wash the Pants.
2. You must never double-cuff the Pants. It's tacky. There will never be a time when this will not be tacky.
3. You must never say the word "phat" while wearing the Pants. You must also never think "I am fat" while wearing the Pants.
4. You must never let a boy take off the Pants (although you may take them off yourself in his presence).
5. You must not pick your nose while wearing the Pants. You may, however, scratch casually at your nostril while really kind of picking.
6. Upon our reunion, you must follow the proper procedures for documenting your time in the Pants.
7. You must write to your Sisters throughout he summer, no matter how much fun you are having without them.
8. You must pass the Pants along to your Sisters according tot he specifications set down by the Sisterhood. Failure to comply will result in a severe spanking upon our reunion.
9. You must not wear the Pants with a tucked-in shirt and belt. See rule #2.
10. Remember: Pants = love. Love your pals. Love yourself.
My Thoughts:
This is one of my favorite books! The entire series is a series that no teen girl should ever go without reading. It brings the reader into the story in their own way, and makes sure that you can connect with at least one of the characters. This is a magical book that you absolutely have to read!
Recommendations for...:
With is for all teen girls. Ages, 15 and up. Well, maybe 14. Idk. Basically 7th grade and up. However old that is. Anyway, this is an absolute must read! If you only read one book during your teen years, make sure this is it! I love this book and the rest of the series. They are truly amazing!
