By A Customer

This review is from: Baby-Sitters on Board! (Baby-Sitters Club Super Special, No. 1) (Paperback)

I loved this book especially the Disney World bits. Disney World is cool I should know!

When Baby Sitting clients The Pikes win a cruise and Holiday they invite Stacey and Mary-Anne along as 'Mothers Helpers' as they do at Sea City. Then Kristy Step-Dad Watson orginizes a trip for Kristy and the family AND invites Claudia and Dawn along as guests. Well of course they have lots of adventures. Dawn falls for a boy called Parker, Kristy finds her Nannie a Boy Friend, Mary-Anne meets a Little Liar, Claudia meets a cute guy called Timothy and Stacey makes friends with a boy called Marc who is suffering a heart disease. AND Byron Pike finds treasure and Karen Brewer gets a MANICURE! They have a ton of fun in Disney World especially when Karen meets a 'hitchhiking' Ghost. And they still have time for BABY SITTING! But can they think of a gift to thank the Pikes and Brewers? Of course they can.... their the Baby Sitters Club!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is about the BSC when the Pike family wins a trip to go on a cruise around the Bahamas and a few days in Disney land. Kristy's Step father{watson} finds out Kristy hasn't been on a hoilday out of the connecticut so since he is a millionaire he did some quick planning so he could take Kristy and her family and the rest of the BSC as well and this book is about the adventres they have when they are on hoilday.

5.0 out of 5 stars First and Best Super Special, October 16, 2007

Okay, I may be one of the few people here that read these books when they first came out. I was 12 when the series started, and they were SOOO popular.

I thought this, the first Super Special was by far the best one. I wanted to go on a cruise SO BAD after reading it, and when I finally DID go on a cruise a few years ago, I still remembered this book.

I loved the parts about Disney World, even though I've never been there I've been to Disneyland a million times, and loved how Ann Martin captured the 'feel' of Disneyland.

I'm sure that these books are dated by todays standards (kids are so much OLDER now than they were when I was a kid), but I still love these books, and pick them up and read them when I need a break from the stress and worry of being an 'old' adult. :-)
