Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Friendship of course 1!. because after all their individual sufferings, losses, and hard times, in the end they are all there for eachother, and are like eachothers support system!. 2!. The first person they tell their troubles to are eachother, even when Bridgette closes up about losing her virginity, and about the loss of her mother, she eventually tells her friends and lets out all her emotions and feelings to them!. 3!. Even being so far away they are stilll close, still have love for eachother, still put eachother first!. An example of that is when they all fly out to Greece to come help Lena look for the pants!.

2!. Seeing past stereotypes/Diversity: These are all VERY very different girls, yet they have been friends for so long, and are all such loyal friends despite their differences!. Lena is very shy and quiet, Bridgette is very loud and outgoing, Tibby is somewhat negative and a bit of an oddball, and Carmen is highly opinionated, and stubborn and the biggest of the girls!. You think that blonde slim Bridgette wouldn't be friends with a girl like Carmen, but they are, they see past their appearances!. 2!. The pants fits them all, all different body parts, this kind of symbolizes that friendship is like a One size fits all type of thing, everybody needs some good friends no matter who they are/or what they look like!. 3!. All have very different familys, lifestyles, and aspirations!. Bridgette is an athlete, Tibby is a film maker, Lena is a shy and quiet artist, and Carmen doesnt even quite know what she wants to be (until the next book when she acts i guess)!. I really hope I've helped!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Its been a long time since I read it so I can only think of one theme and that is the value/ importance/ power of friendship!. How they help each other through hard times and all that!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
