I loved this book. Dawn is one of my favorite baby-sitters. In this book she is new to Stoneybrook. She just joined the BSC and made some new friends, including her best friend Mary Anne. But Mary Anne's long-time best friend Kristy is jealous and isn't very nice to Dawn. Dawn wanted to be friends with Kristy and take the big job at the Barretts. Dawn did a good job sitting for the Barretts. The house was a mess, the kids were sloppy and whiney, and Mrs. Barrett is disorganized who never leaves Dawn any directions. But she just went through a divorce and that's why her household is chaotic. I liked the part when she did the cleaning races and when she became friends with Kristy. Toward the end of the book, Buddy Barrett is missing. Dawn started a search party. But it turned out that he went off with his father. Dawn was very brave to speak up to Mrs. Barrett about her disorganized ways.

I thought that the formentioned book was excellent reading. The cross-over plot lines made good reading. This book gives great ideas on how to deal with a parent who is not "holding their part of the bargain". The baby sitters club is a great way to learn how to deal with dificult situations when one is baby-sitting

This BSC book is really good! It says the children are a handful, but it's really their mother. The mom doesn't tell Dawn her daughter can't eat chocolate, she gives Dawn the wrong number to her work, and leaves her house and children a mess! I really liked this so much that I read it in one day! I hope this review helps!

Dawn is the new member of the Baby Sitters Club. She's Mary Anne's best friend. There are five members, Kristy Thomas, Claudia Kishi, Stacey McGill, Mary Anne Spier, and Dawn Scafer. Dawn gets to baby sit some new kids: Suzi, Buddy, and Marnie Barrett. I don't understand why it's called "Dawn and the Impossible Three," the kids aren't that bad, and Dawn really likes them! But their mom never says anything about the kids to Dawn, and she even leaves the wrong phone number and doesn't say that Marnie is allergic to chocalate, and Dawn almost gives her a brownie! Mrs. Barrett does say don't let the kids talk to their dad on the phone, but then Buddy does, and he goes outside while Dawn is dressing Suzi and Marnie and then Dawn can't find him when she goes outside to play with the kids!

Dawn and the Impossible Three by Ann M.Martin is about a girl named Dawn who just joined the baby sitters club that Kristy formed. As Dawn starts her baby sitting job, she gets faced with something that she thought wouldn't have happened. Then she later on realizes that she can't do everything for a family because it's not her job to do that and it should be the parents job to do it.

Buddy Barette who is one of the kids that Dawn had to baby sit is missing and nobody knows where he is. Dawn was so scared because it was her respondsibilty to watch him and his two little sisters. She had everybody in the neighborhood looking for him. Buddy called Dawn and asked,"Buddy, where are you? we're worried death. Where are you?"(pg.140)and then she became happy to hear that he's still alive and knowing that he's coming back home.

This was my first time ever reading one of the Baby Sitters Club book. at first I thought it wasn't good becuase of the title of the book, but then when i finished book, it made me want to read more books from the Baby Sitters Club. Since I was once a baby sitter myself, I can kind of relate to some of the girls in the story and that's how it made me become interested in reading the book.

Dawn Scafer is a new babysitter for the BSC, and has the job to babysit,Buddy-7, Suzzie-5,Marine- 1.And there is total choas;since their dad divorced their mother everything gets out of controll,Buddy gets missing(He was taken from his dad They told the police to come over and look for evdence.) The house is messed up, and worst of all they are all fighting. Well then it's up to Dawn.

I just reread Dawn and the Impossible Three today. This book is important. First, you learn more about Dawn the newest BSC member. You learn about how Dawn's friendship to Mary Anne affects Kristy. You also meet some important BSC clients. The Barretts are great people to write about. I like this book and I hope you read it.

I think this is a really interesting book. This is a book when Dawn realizes that Kristy is jealous of her to be Mary Anne's other best friend. Mary Anne doesn't need Kristy that much anymore and that Kristy liked it much better without Dawn around. So when Dawn takes the job with the Barrett kids, she's sure that she can prove to Kristy want a fine sitter she is and that she is very nice. Then she discovers that the Barrett kids have problems. Mrs. Barrett is very disorganized and she just got through an unfriendly divorce. Dawn's determine to solve two things--what a fine sitter and good friend she can be to Kristy and win her friendship, and help the Barrett kids and Mrs. Barrett. Planning it out is easy, but how is she supposed to do it? Join Dawn and help her solve her problems!

You will most def like this book. It's about an eighth-grader named Dawn Schafer that has to babysit for three kids: Buddy, Suzi, and Marnie. They are the Impossible Three to her. But it's not their fault; it's their mother's. She just suffered a divorce and is frazzled with a busy schedule and not to mention her three children. The house is messy, the children are sloppy, and Mrs. Barret still manages to pull herself together. Well, Dawn confronts her and says what needs to be done, but she says it without intruding on their family's matters. I liked the way that she did that. I also liked the way she became friends with Kristy, after all, she did sort of "steal" her best friend. But Kristy and Mary Anne are still best friends, and Dawn's Mary Anne's other best friend. It would've been better if they all became a circle of best friends, but that's okay. It could very well happen one day.

Read the book! It rulez!
