Best friend moves away

Best friends

by Jacqueline Wilson

Alice and Gemma have been best friends forever even though they have some completely different interests and different characteristics.  Alice's family move away and the girls try their hardest to keep their lifelong friendship strong.  They write letters and call each other but its not the same as seeing each every day.  They face challenges such as how to celebrate birthdays without each other and making new friends all the while not knowing whether they'll ever see each other again....  This is a great read for girls, aged approximately 8 years of age, who have an intense friendship that is put to the test when their very best friend moves away.
