Friendship, Teamwork and Wisdom... It's All In This Book

As I said in my title, Friendship, Teamwork and Wisdom, it's all in this book. Six girls become a team and train for a Double-Dutch competition. It's all about teamwork. The Double Dutch Club is a great series for any person. Using their own affects to stay friends and win, the Double Dutch Club girls show who they really are.

Excellent reading selection!

As a mother of a pre-teen girl, I think that Just Jump is an excellent reading selection for young girls! The story is easy to follow and offers great life-lessons with spiritual reference for the reader. As the characters learn to work together to achieve a goal, they also learn the value of friendship and teamwork.
