Say Hello to Your Friends

The Baby-Sitters Club! This series really ignited my love of reading. I was beyond obsessed with these books, but I actually learned a little something from reading them. There are things I know about ballet (Jessi Ramsey was a ballet dancer), diabetes and New York landmarks (Stacey McGill, who I think was my favorite babysitter, was from New York and a diabetic) that I picked up from reading these books. I recently found a bunch of them in an old trunk at my mother's house. Oh, the memories!
