Malia, Dot, and Bree need to make some money for an epic joint birthday
party. When Malia is inspired by an old paperback in a library discard
box, the three turn to babysitting, even though they've never actually
done any babysitting, and are not really even sure they like kids.
Things start out well enough, until Malia's evil older sister steals
their idea and runs with it. Can the three original babysitters get
their clients back, or will they lose the babysitting business and their
friendship, as well?
This is a light, fun read. The adults in
this book are the absolute worst, but I'm sure that won't bother the
target audience. It was cute to see the Baby-Sitters' Club re-imagined
for a new generation, including some shade cast at the original ("Is
this seriously what people found fun in the '90s?"). An enjoyable, if
inessential, read.
(Reviewed from a copy borrowed through my library system.)
