''The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants'' is a bestselling young adult novel by Ann Brashares published in 2001. It follows the adventures of four best friends — Lena Kaligaris, Tibby Rollins, Bridget Vreeland, and Carmen Lowell, who will be spending their first summer apart when a magical pair of jeans comes into their lives, turning their summer upside down. The book was adapted into a film of the same name in 2005. Four sequels to the book have been published, ''The Second Summer of the Sisterhood''; ''Girls in Pants: The Third Summer of the Sisterhood''; ''Forever in Blue: The Fourth Summer of the Sisterhood''; and ''Sisterhood Everlasting''.
==Plot summary==
In the first novel of the series the reader is introduced to four high school students: Lena Kaligaris, Tibby Rollins, Bridget Vreeland, and Carmen Lowell. They have been best friends since birth (their mothers attended prenatal exercise classes together). The summer before their junior year of high school, Carmen finds a pair of old jeans that fits each of them perfectly. Despite their different sizes, the pants fit perfectly on each girl. They believe that the pants are magical. They share the "traveling pants" among themselves over the summer while they are separated.
Lena spends the summer with her grandparents on Santorini. During her stay, her grandmother attempts to matchmake her with a man by the name of Kostos. Kostos takes interest in Lena, who eventually returns the notion. She goes skinny-dipping and Kostos accidentally sees her. Later in the summer, Lena explains to her grandparents what happened in order to repair the rift between her and Kostos' grandparents, and confesses to Kostos that she loves him.
Tibby spends the summer working at a Wallman's store, planning to film a documentary of her experiences. She meets a 12-year-old girl, Bailey, after the latter faints at the store. (It is revealed that she has been diagnosed with leukemia.) Over the course of the summer, the two become close friends and Bailey begins to help Tibby film her documentary. Tragically, Bailey passes from her leukemia, which leads Tibby to refocus her documentary to capture the memories that they created together.
Carmen goes to South Carolina to spend the summer with her father, from whom she has grown apart since he and Carmen's mother divorced several years before. Carmen learns that he is engaged. Out of frustration at feeling left out of her father's new family, she breaks a window in their home with a rock and returns home to her mother. She eventually attends her father's wedding at the suggestion of her friends.
Bridget attends a soccer camp in Baja California. While there, she falls for one of the coaches, Eric Richman. Bridget pursues him in spite of the camp's prohibition on coaches and campers entering relationships with each other, and eventually sees him in his underwear. She conspires to lose her virginity to him, until Eric eventually tells her that he does not feel as if he can worship her as she deserves. Lena comes to comfort her and bring her the pants, and ends up taking her home.
