4.0 out of 5 stars Welcome Mallory, July 18, 2002

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Hello, Mallory (The Baby-Sitters Club, No. 14) (Library Binding)

Mallory Pike has decided she wants to join the BSC. But the BSC gives her hard tests, and questions that probably no one in their grade could answer! But then Mallory meets Jessi Ramsey and they become fast friends. Jessi has LONG legs so she dances well in Ballet. Jessi hasn't been treated well because she is black, which is VERY unfair. Jessi and Mallory decide to start their own baby-sitting club. Read the rest to find out!
This book's moral is to treat others well and fairly, or their feelings will be hurt.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hello, Mallory, November 11, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Hello, Mallory (The Baby-Sitters Club, No. 14) (Library Binding)

I just read this book and I think it's good. It shows that the babysitters club is also mean and worried. In this book Mallory gets a best friend which can happen in bad times. It also tells how even now people still hate blacks because they're different. It isn't one of her best books but I think with all the truth in it it deserves 5 stars because her best books should get more than that. Jessi is also just like Mallory and that is what there needs to be in a best friend but they can also be very different like Mary Anne and Kristy. Another reason this book is so true. With the true facts of life along with humor in all sorts of form this book deserves 5 stars.

Mallory pike has always wanted to be a member of the BSC. First, they test her with a test they don't know. Second, Claudia makes Mallory feel like a baby on her first baby sitting job. So Mallory and Jessi got irritated and they started their own club called "Kids Incorporated".
