Nothing mentioned. It has to be nearing the end of the second 8th grade year right? Claudia mentions the weather is cloudy and cool, so I’m still going with spring.
Plot
The BSC has a new client, Rosie. Rosie is a genius and an actress and a singer and a piano player. And a dancer. Claudia has nothing in common with her and Rosie is kind of a brat so she dreads babysitting for her.
As Claudia gets to know her, though, it becomes apparent that Rosie is pretty misunderstood and miserable. She doesn’t want to do all that shit, but her parents make her. She sees Claudia drawing one day and asks some questions, and it ends up that is one of her talents as well. But it is one she actually really enjoys. So Claudia convinces her to talk to her parents, who agree she can take art lessons from Claudia and they will chill about everything else.
Also, Claudia and the club decide to put on an art show featuring Claudia’s “junk food” series.
Takeaways
Rosie is in a crossword puzzle contest. What the fuck? Stoneybrook schools are so weird.
Claudia calls Janine to come over and help Rosie with her homework. Janine does it. It’s kind of weird. And Janine doesn’t like Rosie either.
Rosie is only 7. Seven. There is no way a seven year old would be like this. The BSC is so off with their ages.
Best character
Janine for helping babysit Rosie. Not only does she come with Claudia calls, but also Jessi calls her and she comes running.
Worst character
Rosie’s mom - she is an uppidity bitchy stage mom until the very end of the book.
