Editorial Reviews

VOYA
Stacey McGill faces challenges in her new home and with her new friends in the Baby-Sitters Club who are dealing with rival competition, but her biggest tests are learning to cope with her diabetes and her overprotective parents. The BSC-Kristy, Mary Anne, Claudia, and Stacey-are forced to compete for baby-sitting jobs, so they employ some of Kristy's good ideas such as personalized kid-kits to bring all their favorites to the children. Their competitors are good promoters. They recruit older sitters, and they even stoop to sabotage, but the BSC prevails by simply being more caring, careful baby-sitters. Stacey faces her own personal trials daily as she is constantly shuffled from one doctor to another in search of the miracle cure. Her parents also have become exceedingly overprotective, but Stacey eventually and creatively gains a voice in her own treatment. This is the second of Martin's Baby-Sitter's Club series to be lent freshness and appeal when adapted to graphic novel format, but it is the third from the original series. Telgemeier, an Eisner Award nominee, creates characters who are expressive, endearing, and do a great job expressing the gawkiness of those tween and teen years. Readers may also enjoy The Baby-Sitter's Club: Kristy's Great Idea (Graphix/Scholastic, 2006/VOYA June 2006), her first graphic novel. Again the level is spot on with this enjoyable and unique read that will be a welcome addition to any young adult collection.

From The Critics
Everybody's favorite crew of good-hearted babysitters is back in this second graphic novel from Scholastic's Graphix line. In this sophomore volume, Stacey is dealing with some heavy issues: controlling her diabetes and her overprotective family. Well-adjusted and happy, she has no interest in seeing a new doctor, and is less thrilled when it is mentioned that she may have to move again. To make matters worse, the BSC is under some heavy competition when the all-new Baby-Sitters Agency hits the scene, with older, more experienced sitters. How will the girls defeat their rivals? Will Stacey confront her diabetes—and her family? Martin and Telgemeier have created an endearing graphic novel for young readers. Telgemeier's b/w art is a perfect complement to Martin's writing, forming a smooth synthesis for readers. Little touches—Claudia's updated skunk chunk in her hair, and the keen eye for fashionable details—move this adaptation into a contemporary time frame. Readers of the paperback novel series will like this; and conversely, it may draw fans of the graphic novel to the previous prose series. This family-friendly volume should be a hit with ‘tween audiences and will even reach teens with its heavy nostalgia value.

    must read

    The truth about Stacey is a great book for everyone who likes to read about people with typical lives. This book talks about the job of a baby sitter, and the life lessons they learn as they deal with a new baby sitters agency. They face many difficulties with the agency???

    love it

    im a fan of the bsc, always have been since the 4th grade till now(im now 22) Stacey is diabetic and she has a hard time dealing with it...not because of the fact that she is ill, but because those who are around her seems to bug into her personal life continously...though she has great friends in Stoneybrook, she still have dilemas and problems with her past life in NY...The truth About Stacey is a touching Novel...for both childrens and returning fans of the babysitters club...it brings fun and thoughts into those that are young...and truth and meaning to those who are older...BSB is made for all age =) i highly recommend the old BSB novel...but this comic one is a great read as well.
