The Baby-Sitters Club #5: Dawn and the Impossible Three (Graphic Novel)

What's The Story?

Dawn Schafer is the new kid in town and the freshest face at The Baby-sitters Club, but adjusting to life in Stoneybrook after moving from sunny California isn’t all sunshine and palm trees. Eager to prove herself, Dawn jumps at her first big babysitting job—but wrangling the unruly Barrett kids quickly turns into more than she bargained for. The house is chaotic, the kids are wild, and their mom’s a no-show when it comes to her promises. As if that’s not enough, Dawn’s struggling to find her groove with Kristy, and she’s starting to wonder if joining the BSC was the right move. In this full-color graphic novel adaptation by newcomer Gale Galligan, Dawn faces challenges on all fronts. Can she keep it together, or is the BSC life just too much for the laid-back Californian?
