Great Book

Well, this book is really great. When I first saw it and I thought this is gonna be some cheesy highschool romance novel that is gonna stink. But boy was I wrong, I finished this book in 2 days(if you know me then, it has to be an awesome book if I can finish it that quick)! It's a book about three girls conquering boys,highschool,and one of the school's bullys. Fleur,Ronnie,Claude make wonderful plans for a school concert and the book is about all the laughs(and ok some crys) about it. I don't want to give to much away, because if I do then you might not read it, but you should cause it's awesome as I have said before.

great, very entertaining

Ronnie, Fleur, and Claude are Les Bambinos Dangeureuses (LBD). In LBD: It's a Girl Thing the three friends are dying to go to Astlebury Music Fest, a whole weekend of music, dancing, and snogging. When their fun-hating parents refuse to let them go, they decide to have their own music festival at school. The festival is harder to pull off than they first expect, especially with Year 11 bully Panama Goodyear trying to steal the limelight and Ronnie's crush, Jimi. But with guts, determination, and some surprise help, the LBD are convinced to make Blackwell Live run smoothly, while snagging the spotlight and the boys. The girls' quirky friendship and crazy adventures will have you laughing and believing in the power of the LBD.

LBD its a great book!

What would you do if you were a teenage girl who just wanted to have fun with your best buds, but your parents totally ruin everything? Claude Cassiera, Fleur Swan, and Ronnie Ripperton new exactly what to do. Since there parents were being totally unfair by not letting them go to the Astlebury Music Festival, they decided to stage a festival of their own. Blackwell Live would be the next best thing to Astlebury. If only life was that easy. Organizing a music festival would be tough work. First they would have to convince there Principal Mr. McGraw to let them have the festival, then getting bands together, funding money for stage equipment, and then trying to get the whole student body to participate. This was not going to be an easy task for the LBD, but with the help of some others, will the LBD pull this thing off? This book is about three troublesome teenagers trying to fight their way to life. Adventurous, hysterical, and exciting I would have to recommend this book to teenage girl readers who are ready and up for anything. The LBD consisting of three best friends, are going through their teenage years of life. There boyfriend tragedies, friendship troubles, family breakdowns, and bombing school work is just the thing that I can relate to. This is why I love LBD it's a girl thing so much, I can relate to almost everything these three best friends go through.

LBD: it's a GREAT thing!

Ronnie, Claude, and Fleur are the LBD- les bambinos dangeruses- and their proud of it! These 3 babes attend Blackwell School, where they are regularly tormented by McGraw, the principle, and Panama Goodyear and her band of evil goons. It's also the place to see hotties like Jimi Steele everyday. Despite being a typically grim school, Blackwell has a few redeeming qualities- like the annual Garden Party and Disco. However, McGraw has just announced that it's cancelled! Couple that with the LBD's totally strict parents vetoing their bid to go to Astlebury, the hottest music festival around, and what do you get? The most boring summer ever! The LBD is determined to have some fun...so they plot, scheme, and dream: and come up with Blackwell Live! The LBD is going to organize and chair the first ever local music festival, starring non other than Blackwell's own talents. Of couse, it can't all be fun: the problems come pouring down. Over 200 people come to audition for only 6 slots....many of them horrendous, but quite a few good ones. Then there's evil Panama, insisting that her vile singing group Catwalk be the headlining act..or else. On top of all this, Ronnie's parents are fighting, and Panama is all over her crush Jimi! Will the LBD be able to overcome stingy rental companies, reluctant sponsor, outrageous acts, horrible bullies, and loads of other trauma to make Blackwell Live a complete success?
