Bad News/Good News - Book 2

Charlotte can't believe it. Her father wants to move away again, and the timing couldn't be worse for the Beacon Street Girls. Charlotte just joined the school newspaper. Maeve needs help with the most important project of her life. The new girl, Isabel, is trying to join their group. And their adopted dog, Marty, needs lots of attention.

For Charlotte, Katani, Avery and Maeve -- does all this add up to good news? Or bad news?

I thought that Charlotte would move because it will not be good without her in the stories. I knew how Katani and Avery didn't want Isbel to join and I knew how it felt because I was that way before too with my best friends. smilies/smiley.gif smilies/wink.gif smilies/shocked.gif smilies/grin.gif

This book was amazing. Iwas really worried that charlote was going to move. Is Beacon Street and all those strrets real? How long has Abagail Adams school been there?I just loved this book. now i am on the 6th one and i cant wait to start rerading! smilies/smiley.gif smilies/kiss.gif smilies/wink.gif smilies/cheesy.gif smilies/cool.gif smilies/tongue.gif

Dear BSGmajourfan,
Yes, Beacon Street is a real place! It's in Brookline, near Boston. BUT, did you know that there are Beacon Streets (and Beacon Street Girls everywhere!) There might be a Beacon Street in your town!

XOXOXO,

I thought the reverse psychology thing would work, boy was I wrong. Note to Charlotte: In reverse psychology, you are supposed to make bad things sound good, not good things sound better!

OMG This book is really a page turner Sometimes i dread reading but this books pages are damp with exitment sometimes my mom tells me to "stop reading thats enough" I thought the day would never come

Dear sourbears101,
"Damp with excitement" -- that is some pretty cool imagery. (We're learning about imagery in writing class this week!) Sourbears, are you going to be a writer?

Your Friend,

Hey I just finished reading this book! I love it so much. I was wondering if Abigail Adams Junior High School was real?

Dear xo3hearts3ox,
AAJH is based on the Edward Devotion School in Brookline Massachusetts. You can learn more about the school on the website -- check out the section called Beacon Street.

Your friend,

OH my goodness! I am so glad you out Isebell into the story! She completes the BSG with her creative edge, at first I thought wahhh? cause' i asumed Isabel an kaitini would be best friends right away cause they were both creative! But i am so glad it worked out though.
