The Fabulous Five Together Again

A book that shows just how precious friends are is "The Fabulous Five Together Again" by Betsy Haynes, also author of the Taffey Sinclair books. The main charactera are the fabulous five- Christie Winchell,Jana Morgan,Katie Shannon,Melanie Edwards,and Beth Barry.Then there is the England three- Pheobe Mahoney,Nicki McAfee,and Eleanore Geach.This takes place in England. After her dad gets transferred from the United States to England,Christie is forced to make new friends,the England three,but when the fabulous five come to visit,Christie has trouble on her hands.I think the overall theme is to show the value of friends I give this book four stars.I recommend this book to anyone who has moved away from friends or who has had friends move away from them.

When The Fabulous Five comes to England over Spring Break, Christie is sure that they'll immediatly become friends with her English chums, Phoebe, Nicki, and Eleanore. They weren't really at each other all the time, but the England girls were upset that all of Christie's time was being taken up by her old bffs. But I don't think they were being fair- the Fab Five wasn't staying long and they hadn't seen Christie forever. I don't blame them for getting mad when Ellie and Nicki's boyfriends were flirting with Melanie and Beth- that wasn't very thoughtful at all of the boys or Mel or Beth. Still, I enjoyed this book even though it seemed so quick and the end was too short. And hey, if you want to know more about England, read this! Mrs. Haynes knows her London!
