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?

Hello There!
Hi! I’m Heather, Mom of 3, professional snack opener, the only person who knows where everything is in my house and part-time magician (I can turn a bunch of candy into a gift basket and everyone thinks it’s amazing). I share a mix of parenting moments, easy recipes, crafts, and DIY home decor projects.
Around here, we love turning ordinary stuff into extraordinary gifts, from candy box baskets and birthday punch boards to homemade advent calendars and other crafty chaos that somehow always works out.
Welcome to The Super Mom Life — where the projects are fun, the coffee is strong, and the laughter is pretty much required for survival. Don't forget to follow us on social media!
If lucky enough to win, I would spend the $100 on more books, of course. 🙂
Sounds like the perfect book for a pre-teen/teen girl and yay for a giveway! Definitely a book that would have caught my eye at that age.
I would buy Birthday gifts for my niece and nephews upcoming Birthdays.
It sounds like the kind of book I would have wanted my kids to read. If I win the gift card, I’ll probably buy myself a couple of books and maybe a houseplant. (I just found out that Amazon sells houseplants too.)
I love that she is so excited about the book. That makes me want to read it. I love YA fiction, so I know I would get a kick out of this book!
How cute is this! I totally remember reading The Babysitter’s Club books when I was in elementary school. They got me through 4th and 5th grade for sure.
I would want to win the book and give it to my niece as a birthday gift. The gift card, I could use to buy my maintenance medication.
