Meet the Baby-Sitters Club

The first book of the series.

The Baby-Sitters Club is a graphic novel series. There are four books in this series. I love the books because I enjoy the characters, and the characters face real-life problems.

The characters are Kristey, the president of The Baby-Sitters Club; Claudia, the vice president; Mary Anne, the secretary; and of course, Stacey, the treasurer. They all love baby sitting. So far, I have read three books from the series. I am going to read the other book as well.

So, do you want to meet the characters? 

Stacey McGill is a nice girl. She lived in New York, but then moved to Stoneybrook. She is the fashion icon. When they need supplies, they go to Stacey. One thing that stresses her out is the fact that she has diabetes.  

Claudia Kishi loves art. She even takes classes. She has a sister named Jannie. They always fight, but they usually get over it. They live with their grandma and their mom and dad. Claudia's grandma had a stroke one day, and they were all sad. Claudia kept baby sitting though. She helped her grandma, too. Mary Anne had to sit for Mimi, the grandma. When you need art supplies, count on Claudia.

Mary Anne is the one who loves studying and loves her hair in braids. Mary Anne is very shy though. She loves baby sitting. She's punctual all the time. Her mom died, and it is tough for her and her dad,  but they're pulling through it. She is very smart. Always count on Mary Anne.

Kristy Thomas had the plan to set up the babysitting club. She is in softball because she likes sports. She likes wearing baseball caps. She has two older brothers and one younger brother. If you need any questions answered about the baby-sitters club, go to Kristey.

I recommend this series to kids ages 8-13. There is a lot of drama with the characters. Friends argue, characters have to deal with divorced parents, another character has diabetes, one character's grandma has a stroke, and there are naughty kids to babysit. All of these things make this story interesting. I never know what problem is going to happen next.
