Just Like Sisters


Just Like Sisters is written by Angela McAllister and Sophie Fatus. This is a story about pen pals, Nancy and Ally. Nancy is so excited because her pen pal Ally is finally coming from Florida to visit. They haven't meet before, but Nancy knows they will be just like sisters since they know everything about one another! Nancy and Ally have a great week together shopping, going to the beach, going out to eat, and attending dance lessons. Ally makes a lot of new friends during her visit with Nancy. When Nancy takes Ally back to the airport, the man checking tickets asked Ally if her sister would be coming too. They smiled big, and Nancy replied, "Sisters are together even when they're apart."
My favorite part of the book was the ending. I loved the quote, "Sisters are together even when they're apart." This made me think of my sister and I. Although I am in Iowa for school and she is at home, I feel like we are together since we talk every day. I know everything going on in her life even though I'm not there from talking to her daily. :)
