Claudia Kishi has always felt inferior when compared to her older sister, Janine. Janine's a genius. She gets straight A's and excels in anything having to do with school and learning. Claudia has spelling problems and is lucky to get C's in her classes. She'd much rather paint than do homework, and she secretly snacks on junk food. Claudia and her best friends Stacey, Kristy, Mary Anne, and Dawn are proud members of The Baby-Sitters Club. When Claudia's baby-sitting, Janine is studying. While Janine reads textbooks, Claudia reads Nancy Drew mysteries. One thing the girls have in common is their love for their family. Though Claudia worries that her parents might be more proud of Janine than of her, she knows that her grandmother Mimi loves her unconditionally. When one of their relatives gets really sick, the Kishi sisters have to put aside their differences to help.The original BSC book series was a staple of my childhood. Though I read "big books" and lots of classics, like Janine, I really loved the BSC series. The characters were good eggs and the lessons learned were good ones. Now, the BSC Graphix have breathed new life into the books, attracting reluctant readers and comic book fans. Illustrator/adapter Raina Telgemeier's artwork is really cute, and she's stuck solidly to the original plotlines. I love what she's done with these, and I wish there were more! With over 100 books in the original series, she certainly has plenty to work from, and I really hope that Scholastic hires her to do more BSC Graphix.
My 7 year old daughter loves these graphic novel books! She is very excited each time a new one has come out. She is incredibly sad this is the last one Raina Telgemeier is doing. She has read all of her books and really enjoyed them all. We were having a heard time getting her excited about reading until we discovered these books along with her Sister series. We hope she will reconsider and turn more of the baby sitter books into graphic novels.
the condition is exactly how the seller described it, and fast delivery! I wonder why they didnt make more of these graphic novel versions of this classic book series. Check out the novelettes if your kids liked these for lots more stories with these characters.
Its an A+ book. Great values, great story line and wonderful drawings. Its done in comic book style. We read the whole book in one night.
My daughter loves this series of the babysitters club. It's a graphic novel, so to me it reminds me of something like a comic book format. Pictures/ drawings all through out the book.She enjoys reading, but said these books help add variety to her regular books she reads.If your child isn't much of a reader, this may be a good series to get your child into it
Mimi is sick and Claudia feels blame on herself. She doesn't know if her sister likes her. Will they ever get along?does she know what she's talking about? Will Mimi get better? Will her sister forgive her ? You have to read this book! They had soooooooo much trouble! Grown ups will love it to. You should definitely check it out!!!,!!!!!!!!!!!!
Claudia is going through many tough times. Mimi got a stroke, she and her sister are fighting endlessly, and the Babysitters Club is having TONS of trouble with the hardest client ever. Jenny Prezziosos. I liked this book a lot because it shows the real pro's and con's of sisterhood. Will Janine and Claudia get over their fighting to help Mimi? Read, and find out.
My granddaughter is not a big reader; she just can't find something that appeals to her and falls into "appropriate" for her age group. The Raina Telgemeier Babysitters Club graphic books were so enticing she read three in one day!
