I really loved re-reading the very first Baby-Sitters Club as an adult, Kristy’s Great Idea, a few years ago. The story, characters, and lessons were better than I ever remembered, and I liked it so much I put it on my top 5 books of 2010 list. So it was pretty disappointing reading Baby-Sitters Club #2, Claudia And The Phantom Phone Calls, and finding out that it was a little stilted and just not as much fun or immersing as #1 had been. Ann M. Martin started out the series so strongly, but she stumbled a bit on the second book. Still, lots of practical lessons about baby-sitting, and how to hide things from your parents.
