The hit series returns to charm and inspire another generation of baby-sitters!
Mary Anne has never been a leader of the BSC. So when a fight breaks out among the club's four members, Mary Anne feels a little lost, unable to depend on Kristy, Stacey, or Claudia anymore.
Sitting by herself in the cafeteria is bad enough; when Mary Anne has to baby-sit a sick child without any help from the club, she knows someone has to take action. It's time for Mary Anne to step in and save the day!
The best friends you'll ever have--with classic BSC covers and a letter from Ann M. Martin!

Posted originally on my blog: [...]I forgot how easy it was to sit down with a Baby-sitters Club book and just finish it in one sitting. This is probably one of the reasons I loved the series as a little girl. The other reason lay with the girls themselves. Despite how much or how little I liked each character, they all had at least one thing that resonated with the young girl I was.
Mary Anne Spier is actually the first member of The Baby-sitters Club that I was introduced to and she always remained one of my favorites. Despite the fact I was more like Kristy Thomas, I found something comforting about how sensitive Mary Anne could be and how loving she was towards her friends. Whenever trouble stirs up within the group, she’s usually the one trying to maintain the peace.
This is especially apparent in this first story based around Mary Anne. After months of little things bothering them (i.e. people not offering jobs, people being rude, etc.) the girls find themselves at odds with one another after a huge blow up. Surprisingly, the adult in me didn’t spend the entire book rolling my eyes at the drama between the girls. Because, even now, as an adult, I know how easily one little argument, disagreement or misunderstanding can blow up into a huge fight. Besides, I remember the petty fights my friends and I had at the age and no matter how stupid it was, we let them drag on and on and on.
This particular fight actually serves as a positive thing for Mary Anne and in the end, the entire club. For Mary Anne, it forces her out of her comfort zone. For too long, she’s hidden behind Kristy and Claudia. She’s shy and never makes it a point to befriend people other than those who are friends with her friends. But when this fight leaves her sitting all alone in the cafeteria, she finds the courage to befriend a new girl, Dawn Schafer. Not only does it open her up to making a new friend, but it allows her an opportunity to find her own voice. Especially in regards to sticking up for herself with her friends and ultimately her father, who still treats her like a little girl.
Once everything is said and done, the girls manage to make up and find themselves with a new member in their midst. Meanwhile, Mary Anne’s father allows her to rid herself of the childish braids, choose her own clothing (within reason, obviously) and even have a later curfew for babysitting. True, the stories of these girls aren’t going to become classical fiction like Little Women or Little House on the Prairie did, but they had an impact on my childhood and I love having the opportunity to try and recapture that feeling.

The BabySitters Club #4 Mary Anne Saves the Day edition by Ann M Martin Ann M Martin Children eBooks Reviews
I gave this book five stars because this book is colorful and inter tanning to all ages ,and it is one of my favorite books ever!!! I loved it!❤️😊
My daughter (10) got all four of the books within this series for Christmas and had them finished within three days. She has since reread them multiple times and given them as birthday gifts multiple times.
Great books once again...my sister and I read these books as young readers and now my twelve year old loves them too. The illustrated versions seem to be a hot ticket item. My daughter was so excited that I purchased them all for her birthday...and then read the 6th one in one evening! Great, and CLEAN storylines. Totally applicable to the age group. Would highly recommend.
I remember first reading Mary Anne Saves the Day when I was about 10 or 11 years old. It was the first Baby-Sitters Club book that I had ever read and once I was finished, I was hooked. Over the next couple of months I remember getting a few other BSC books which I still have today. I am now 28, but recently found my copy of Mary Anne Saves the Day (along with a few others) and decided to read it. It brought back a lot of memories! I had always loved Mary Anne, mainly because her personality is a lot like mine. The only things that differ are my parents are (thankfully) both alive and they never made me dress a certain way.
In this particular book, the BSC gets into a fight that starts because Kristy takes a babysitting job without asking who else was free to babysit on that particular day (the client is a favorite of all 4 girls). That starts a series of events that almost break up the club; no one will talk to each other and they cannot even have their meetings together for a period of time. While they are in their fight, Mary Anne befriends a girl who just moved to Stonybrook Dawn. Where, one wonders does Mary Anne saving the day come into play? She is babysitting for a new client and the little girl spikes a rather high fever and Mary Anne calls 911. She proves to her overprotective father that she is very responsible and he finally allows her to wear her hair differently (she has always had to wear it in braids). Plus, there is a connection between Mary Anne's father and Dawn's recently divorced mother.
This *wonderful* series of books is truly inspirational and they really draw you in. Sure you can tell they were written in the mid 80s through the 90s, but in the end, that really plays only a very small part. The books are timeless and someday when I have a daughter, I hope to give the books I have to her and hope she loves them as much as I did.
My 9 year old daughter loves these graphic novel books! We were so sad to learn that they are only making 4 of this series in graphic novels. Cute story line- same as the ones I read when I was a kid. These books are great fro the kids who are still al little intimidated by a regular chapter book and for the ones who love to see pictures with what they are reading.
As a kid I read all the original Babysitters Club books. My daughter loves graphic novels, and mentioned these to me. I was confused at first after she said I got the wrong babysitters club book for her. It turns out these were redone for the current generation. I read some of it and it is really cool how the story is the same, but edited down and in comic form. My daughter really likes some of Raina Telgemeier's other graphic novels; Drama, Sisters, and Smile. I am not surprised she loves these. I also like that they are half the price on than at the store. I'm glad the stories I loved as a girl my daughter now loves, even if they are different.
My daughter has struggled with reading for several years. This book, because of the "comic book" version it is written in has her reading independently and with enthusiasm for the first time. I hope they continue with the rest of the series because if they do I will buy them ALL for her.
