Read MoreBook Review: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
Lena, Bridget, Tibby, and Carmen have been best friends
since birth. Now, just before they are about to spend their first
summer apart, they discover a pair of jeans that miraculously
fits all of them, despite their differing physiques. And not just
fit -- the Pants make each girl look, and feel, beautiful and
confident. They don't know it yet, but they'll need that
confidence during a summer that will test them, each in different
ways.
That's all the magic, if such it is, that comes from the
Pants themselves -- the rest comes from the powerful love these
girls share, which travels with the pants. In a solemn midnight
ceremony, the kind of solemnity of which perhaps only teenage
girls are capable, they make up a compact about the Pants, part
of which is that they will send them back and forth among
themselves throughout the summer. Thus they will be present
during each girl's time of crisis and tie the strands of the
story together engagingly, if somewhat artificially.
Book Review: Because of Winn-Dixie
When lonely India Opal Buloni takes home a stray dog she finds at the supermarket, her whole life changes in ways she couldn't have imagined. This soothing, poignant first novel, filled with the atmosphere of a dusty Southern town, is one of the best around.
India Opal Buloni has just moved to the small town of Naomi, Florida, with her father, a preacher who "reminded me of a turtle hiding inside its shell." Her mother abandoned them years before, and Opal feels alone and abandoned in her new town.
At the supermarket she rescues a stray dog who looks "like a big piece of old brown carpet that had been left out in the rain," and names him Winn-Dixie, after the market. She soon discovers that he is great at making friends, and because of Winn-Dixie, Opal is learning to see beyond people's surfaces.
The ex-con who runs the pet shop plays music that mesmerizes animals. An woman rumored to be a witch is just an old lady who is half-blind, but can see with her heart. A pinched-faced girl harbors a tragic secret. And all are soon her friends.
