MATES, DATES AND SLEEPOVER SECRETS

Shirley Barthelmie breezes through this entertaining recording of MATES, DATES, AND SLEEPOVER SECRETS. This is the fourth title in the series by Cathy Hopkins featuring a group of London gal pals as they alternately stumble and sashay deeper into adolescence. In this title, T.J. develops a crush on a boy-should she tell her new friends about him or keep it to herself? Barthelmie sighs, giggles, and flirts, guiding her voiced characters through complicated friendships and romances in this British import. This is recommended for fans of books by Louise Rennison or as a good beach audio. M.M.O. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: AUG/ SEP 06]
