The Baby-sitters Club

If there is just one book series that made my day, it would be The Baby-sitters Club by Ann M. Martin. I enjoyed reading this series so much as a kid. I read almost all of them, and would wait anxiously for the new one to show up either at the library or on the bookshelf.

The main characters were Kristy, Claudia, Mary Anne, Stacey, Dawn, Mallory, and Jessi. My favorite characters were Claudia and Stacey, who also happened to be best friends in the book. I thought they were so fun and spunky, and I wanted to be just like them. After awhile, I would skip the first few pages of character introductions because I already knew the back story. But the books never grew old to me. I salute Ann M. Martin for making books that enhanced my childhood! Anybody else out there love The Baby-sitters Club?
