The Friendship Pact - Softcover

Grade 4-6 Twelve-year-old best friends Tracy and Andrea are madly in love with TV star/singer Ross "Rabbit" Pearlman, like millions of other pre-teens and teens. When they learn that Rabbit is coming to their town for a benefit concert, they immediately begin planning ways to meet him. The one thing they agree ontheir friendship pactis that they will meet him together or not at all. Tracy is offered a chance to meet Rabbit; regretfully, she turns it down, only to find that Andrea has not taken the pact so seriously and has accepted the offer that Tracy refused. Angrily, Tracy vows never to speak to Andrea again. Then, through a not very credible fluke, Tracy finds herself alone with Rabbit on the eve of the concert; later she magnanimously forgives Andrea, especially after she finds out that Andrea's invitation to meet Rabbit fell through, and all's well that ends well. This is mildly amusing fluff for nine and ten year olds, harmless enough, but with none of the wit and charm of a Blume or a Danziger. Audrey B. Eaglen, Cuyahoga County Public Library, Cleveland
