Synopses & Reviews
Another Baby-sitters Club graphic novel adapted by New York Times bestselling author Gale Galligan.
It's the first day of a new school year, and while Mary Anne doesn't know what to expect from the eighth grade, she's looking forward to getting back into the swing of things. One thing she definitely doesn't expect is to meet Logan Bruno, who just moved to Stoneybrook.
Logan has a dreamy southern accent, he's awfully cute... and he might be interested in joining the BSC. But the baby-sitters aren't sure if Logan would make a good club member, so they send him on a job with Mary Anne as a test. Logan and Mary Anne hit it off, but Mary Anne isn't sure of where their friendship could go. Life in the Baby-sitters Club has never been this complicated — or this fun.
Review
"Relying on a bright palette
and close-ups of the expressive, large-eyed characters, Galligan easily
shifts between giggles with friends and more emotional scenes, always
retaining the upbeat, earnest tone of the original." School Library Journal
Review
"I've been a fan of Gale Galligan's work — and Gale herself — for years.
She's a brilliant cartoonist, and BSC Graphix fans are in for a treat!
Gale brings an amazing sense of whimsy, warmth, and humanity to
everything she touches, and I couldn't be more thrilled to have her take
the baton Ann M. Martin so graciously handed to me a decade ago. Get
ready for more dibbly-fresh Baby-Sitters Club graphic novels, and get
ready to say hello to Gale!" Raina Telgemeier, #1
