The Girls of Canby Hall #17
Graduation Day
For every beginning, there’s an ending.
Senior year at Canby Hall means a lot of fun, excitement, and problems. Faith has to win a scholarship to go to college, and Shelley isn’t sure if she even wants to go. Dana has pressing worries on her mind, too, but the biggest worry on all three girls’ minds is: What will become of their friendship?
The roommates have studied hard and learned a lot during their three wonderful years at Canby Hall. Now they’ve got to learn the hardest lesson of all — how do you say good-bye to your best friends? And how do you accept the new girls who will be taking your place?

I really wish there had been another book between the last one and this one. I'm going to miss Faith, Dana and Shelley! I need more time with them lol

The girls have mixed emotions about leaving the school. Faith needs to get a scholarship to attend college. Shelley feels Dana and Faith are ignoring her. Casey's parents apparently aren't going to attend her graduation. There's a good bit of arguing going on between the main three. Pamela causes them more trouble.
Still, there's always Allison to talk to,
Here's where I have a problem with series. The second half of the set has three different girls staying in 407. Why didn't the entire series just center around Faith, Dana and Shelley? The Dana Girls had a similar series and the main characters weren't changed in that. Maybe they felt that people would get tired of the three girls? I don't know, but it would be interesting to understand the reasons for the change in personnel in Room 407.

One of my favorite series every when I was a kid. Quick and easy to read, even when I was 10 years old. The series is the story of 3 girls in an all girl boarding school and how they become friends and get through life and all of the bumps along the way.
