Customer Reviews

I really liked this book!

I have to say I really liked this book and I would give it 4 1/2 stars I just don't like the end it makes it sound like there was something wrong with being a tom boy. Billie is a lot like a girl I know and like and I would hate it if she changed and joined a group like the unicorns. maybe its just me though. but I would say you should get this book. its about a tom boy named Billie who is sad because her mom is having a baby and she feels left out and she got her period and thinks she has to act like a girl now and that she can't be a tom boy.Its still a good book though.

another typical Sweet Valley Book

In this book, Billy is a typical tomboy who loves sports and hates dressing up in girly clothes and wearing make-up. When all of these changes come to Billy; her mother having a baby, and Billy getting her period, Billy thinks that she has to stop playing sports and become a "girly girl." Her friends, Jessica and Elizabeth Wakefield, take Billy under their wing and tell her that she can play sports and be a "girly girl" at the same time. ``Katrina

One of the best!

I really enjoy the Sweet Valley Twins books. This one is pretty good. In this story, Billie Layton realizes her life is changing. She feels very alone, as if no one understands her worries. I think we can all relate to a time in our lives like this. Billie, however, makes the best of her situation, and eventually finds happiness. I really liked this book, and I admired Billie's character. I recommend you buy this.

Wicked!!!

Billie Layton's life is full of changes. Her mom is pregnant, She starts her periods, and her best friend Jim, is in love with super-flirt Sally Holcomb. Can Jessica and Liz, help her see that being a girl isn't so bad after all?
