I was surprised by this novel. Specifically, what surprised me, was how annoyed and disappointed I was in the story. I can't believe I read this entire series growing up. Now that I babysit, these kids, the babysitters, were annoying! Instead of yelling at the brat that caused Claudia to break her leg, or tell their parents, they set out to humiliate her in front of her peers as a practical joke. It was horrible!
