Still nothing mentioned, so spring of their second 6th grade/8th grade year
Plot
Some of the kids in Stoneybrook are in this “Kids Club”where they do community service. Jessi’s little sister is in the club and she comes home freaking out bc one of the club sponsors is leaving town for a long time and they have to disband. Jessi decides to step up, if the BSC will allow it, and be the second sponsor so the club can continue. Not only will the BSC allow it, but they all decide to slow down on the babysitting and do some community service for a month.
While helping this Kids Club, Jessi meets a little girl named Danielle who has cancer. She mentions to Jessi that she wants to go to DisneyLand, and Jessi researches a little and finds the BSC version of Make-A-Wish. They grant her wish, but then at the end of the book Jessi finds out she is back in the hospital.
Takeaways
The club was so busy last book that they lost their goddamned minds that Mallory wanted to take three weeks off. But somehow now they can all take a month off to do community service?
Becca and Charlotte befriend Danielle when everyone else is kind of scared of her. It’s so sweet.
I didn’t like this book as a kid. I just plain old didn’t like Jessi books, but also this book is depressing as fuck.
We have no idea if Danielle lives or dies. We never hear about her again.
Best character
Jessi, obvi. She’s pretty selfless in this book.
Worst character
There really isn’t a bad character in this book. Everyone is really nice and thoughtful and giving.
