Chelsea and Astra: Rejacketed

By Mary Hooper

'I saw him first. His eyes swivelled round the room and then rested on me and I thought to myself - WOW!'

Chelsea and Astra are like chalk and cheese. But even so, they are the best of friends. They do everything together. Until something happens. That something is a boy. And for the first time ever, Astra and Chelsea are fighting against each other. Will their friendship survive?

Written from the perspectives of each friend, Mary Hooper gets right to heart of what it feels like when the loyalty of even the best of friendships is tested.
