Book: P.S. Longer Letter Later
Author: Paula Danziger and Ann M. Martin
Elizabeth and Tara*Starr are best friends. Tara*Starr moves away
with her charents (child-like parents) and everything starts to
change. Elizabeth's dad goes berserk while Tara*Starr is having
the time of her life with all her boyfriends and other friends.
What happens? You will love how the 2 girls deal. Ann Martin is
the voice of Elizabeth and Paula Danziger is the voice of
Tara*Starr. I am glad these two authors wrote a book together
because they are my two favorite authors, no offense to the
others.
