Bookroo's summary
Twelve-year-old Malia Twiggs and her friends Dot and Bree launch a babysitting club in their small California town to fund an epic birthday party. But as they juggle unruly kids, unexpected mishaps, and their own friendship dynamics, they quickly learn babysitting is far from easy. With no parents around and unlimited snacks at their disposal, what could possibly go wrong? Dive into their hilarious misadventures and discover if they can pull off the ultimate party or if their plans will crumble under the chaos.
From the publisher
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?
