About the Book: BEST BABYSITTERS EVER
By Caroline Cala
Published by HMH Books for Young Readers
Recommended for ages 10-14
A funny new middle grade series about three 12-year-old best friends who start a babysitting club in their small California town. Perfect for fans of series like Whatever After and the Dork Diaries.
Once upon a time, a girl named Kristy Thomas had a great idea: to form The Baby-Sitters Club with her best friends. And now twelve-year-old Malia Twiggs has had a great idea too. Technically, she had Kristy’s idea. (And technically, little kids seem gross and annoying, but a paycheck is a paycheck). After a little convincing, Malia and her friends Dot and Bree start a babysitting club to earn funds for an epic birthday bash. But babysitting definitely isn’t what they thought it would be.
Three friends. No parents. Unlimited snacks. And, okay, occasionally watching other people’s children. What could possibly go wrong?

How fun! We had a book like this when we were younger. They had an entire series and everything.
I’d spend it on clothes for my children.
I will spend it on groceries
My Dad’s 75th birthday ? is coming up so I would give it to him to spend.
This sounds like a funny book. I enjoyed reading some of the popular books when I was a kid. Kids can totally be inspired by stories of other kids lives.
This looks like a great book! Plus, an awesome giveaway! Thanks for sharing.
I would replace my favorite heavy sweater that got worn out and has a broken zipper and spend the rest on a date night outing/ dinner and a movie.
