YA
Four teenagers--best friends since babyhood--have different destinations for the summer. When they find a pair of "magic pants" (secondhand jeans that fit them each perfectly, despite their different body types), they vow that the Pants will travel with them and "keep us together when we are apart." This first novel is a breezy, feel-good book about friendship and growing up.
