Snobby Taffy + Jealous Jana = Trouble

This book is about snobby Taffy Sinclair getting a part in a national soap opera. Of course, Jana is jealous, (anyone would be), and Taffy rubs it in every chance she gets, so the Fabulous Five decide to get even by writing an 'expose' on everything snotty Taffy has ever done. Maybe those things were true, but I don't think Jana should have written it. Just because Taffy is a jerk doesn't mean Jana should lower herself to her level. This is a good book to show what happens when jealousy gets the best of us.

Jana was wrong, but she learned her lesson

I know I'd die of jealousy if I saw my worst enemy on a TVshow, and then having her rub it in the next day at school. This is agreat book that shows the feelings REAL kids feel.
