Kristy and the mother's day surprise. (Baby-Sitters Club no.024)
Ann M. Martin
- Reading
- If reading together, you could discuss why the Baby-Sitters choose to organise a day off for the mothers.
- Themes
- Care within families: Kristy wants to do something nice for her mother, and the Baby-Sitters plan a day off for mothers. The premise centres on a caring gesture, but the story’s broader view of family relationships is not established.
- Worth knowing
- Kristy’s worry about her mother’s secretive behaviour is part of the setup. How serious or sustained this feels in the story is not clear.
