Our Friendship Rules, By Peggy Moss and Dee Dee Tardif. Illustrated by Alissa Imre Geis

Alexandra and Jenny have been best friends for a long time. But when Alexandra is momentarily dazzled by the glamour of a new girl at school, she's willing to do almost anything to be the cool girl's friend. Ultimately, she tells Jenny's biggest, most important secret--and just like that, Alexandra is in! When Alexandra sees the hurt she's caused, she knows she has to figure out a way to regain the friendship that's far more important to her than being invited to sit with the popular girls.

Our Friendship Rules is both a lyrical story of forgiveness and a simple, sweet but instructive tale about true friendship.
