The Baby-Sitters Club Book 2: Claudia And The Phantom Phone Calls




That's right! Kristy, Mary Anne, Claudia, and Stacy are back and just as the are getting used to managing the BCS (Baby-Sitters Club ), a shocking story appears in the newspaper; a burglar has appeared in a town near Stoneybridge! The thief is notorious for calling innocent people and not saying a word, only calling to see if they are home. When the home owners leave, he breaks in and steals their valuable jewelry. The criminal has been nicknamed "The Phantom Caller". Through the eyes of Claudia Kishi, see how the Baby-Sitters deal with this new issue, which they hadn't ever thought about before: What if a burglar strikes when one of them is baby-sitting?! If you enjoyed Book 1: Kristy's Great Idea, you'll surely enjoy this sequel.

This book is suspenseful, but also has a touch of humor, just the way I like it! I was already a big BSC fan after reading the first book, but the second book really had me wanting more! Although book two could pretty much stand by itself, if you're interested in learning how the Baby-Sitters Club was started, be sure to pick up a copy of Kristy's Great Idea using the Amazon widget on my post from two days ago.

As always, have a wonderful day and be sure to give me some feedback by leaving a quick comment. Feel free to leave a request if you want advice on the perfect books, snacks, or movies for you. I'll try to get back to you as soon as I can.

The Baby-Sitters Club Book 1: Kristy's Great Idea


Are you looking for a good book to read this summer? Why don't you try picking up Book 1 of the exciting Baby-Sitters Club series, Kristy's Great Idea. Join Kristy, Mary Anne, Claudia, and Stacy as they start a cool and convenient club that gives busy parents a quick and easy way to find a group of reliable Baby-Sitters in only one phone call. This club is a great idea, but soon this team discovers that starting a business isn't easy. Follow these smart sitters as they figure out how to deal with the hardest of problems, and strengthen their friendships along the way.

I was hardly able to put down this book after I started reading it. After finishing, I was sure to ask my parents for the next book in the series. Now I want to start baby-sitting!

The only problem with this book is that it is about 7th graders but it is on around a 4th grade reading level, so the content is perfect for me but the reading level is too easy. But on the other hand, if you want a quick read, this might just be the book for you. Maybe it will even teach you a few new baby-sitting skills!
