We, the Sisterhood, hereby instate the following rules to govern the use of the Travelling Pants:

1. You must never wash the pants.

2. You must never double-cuff the Pants. It's tacky. There will never be a time when this will not be tacky.

3. You must never say the word "phat" while wearing the Pants. You must also never think "I am fat" while wearing the Pants.

4. You must not pick your nose while wearing the Pants. You may, however, scratch casually at your nostril while really kind of picking.

5. Upon our reunion, you must follow the proper procedures for documenting your time in the Pants.

6. You must write to your Sisters throughout the summer, no matter how much fun you are having without them.

7. You must pass the Pants along to your Sisters according to the specifications set down by the Sisterhood. Failure to comply will result in a severe spanking upon our reunion.

8. You must not wear the Pants with a tucked in shirt and belt. See rule #2.

9. Remember: Pants = love. Love your pals. Love yourself.

The Second Summer of the Sisterhood is an entertaining novel for girls aged 13 - 18. There are some "mature" subjects in the book. The genre is fiction, but it could almost be a real situation. It outlines some of the problems real girls face, but maybe not the best solutions. It represents strong friendships, personal problems and all the things in between.

About the PANTS...

"They don't just bring happiness and light to the girls who wear them. They're like a truly good friend—they get you to do and experience things that may cause discomfort in the short term, but will make you happier in the long term."
