Quote-
"We need to find a way to keep the Perry's together or i'm out of a job and i'm destine to move back" (255). This quote is significant in the book because it explains how the girls are planning a party for the Perry's to try to get them back together, or else Jacqui will be out of a job for the rest of the summers.

Theme- I think all the girls are learning how to deal with their own problems rather than buy things or people's attention to feel good.
