Perfect!

When The BSC accepts Jeff and the Pikes as baby sitting training. Something is wrong. There are too many sitters.

Hawiian Vacation?

(A kid's review) I liked this book overall, except for the fact that the baby-sitters wanted to tow Dawn along on that school Hawaii trip- and she was on their side. I felt terrible for Dawn's mom- all she wanted to do was spend time with her daughter and WHOOSH! back to the west coast goes Dawn, without a care in the world about how her mother feels. There's even a paragraph in the story that goes like this: A trip to Hawaii? I'd already flown clear across the country. I'd been looking foreward to a nice, relaxing New England summer. Did I really want to go back out West so soon? You bet I did! That is terribly cruel and makes Dawn sound like a snobby brat without one care about her mother's feelings. This book WILL frustrate you in parts.

Fabulous Baby-Sitter Club Book!!!!

This book is really adventurous. A girl named Dawn is visiting her mom, stepfather, and stepsister for the summer from California. She flies over to Connecticut with her little brother, Jeff. Her friends who made the Baby-Sitters Club are really happy to see her, but Dawn finds out that her friends want to earn money to go to Hawaii. Dawn's parents allow Dawn and her stepsister, Mary Anne to go. They have to earn at least half the money. At the same time, Dawn's brother, Jeff and the Pike triplets, Bryon, Adam, and Jordon want to baby-sit so they form the BIT(baby-sitters in training). They do a terrible job even when the Baby-Sitters Club has to pay them. I think the book was one of the best in the series!!!!

THIS BOOK WAS GREAT!

"Dawn and Too Many Sitters" has a great plot, and that's why I rate it a 10. It's funny. Dawn Schafer's younger brother, Jeff, and Mallory Pike's younger brothers, Adam, Byron, and Jordan, decide they want to be baby-sitters too. But there are some drawbacks: Jeff hates smelly diapers, and didn't want to change Andrea Prezzioso's; and Adam goes with Stacey to sit for Matt and Haley Braddock and Adam and Haley get into a fight. It probably happened because Haley is nine and Adam is ten. I think that maybe Jeff, Adam, Jordan and Byron are too young to baby-sit.
