Claudia and the Bad Joke (the Baby-Sitters Club #19) -- Ann M. Martin, Paperback

America's favorite series returns with a new look and a Netflix tv show.

Claudia's not worried when she hears her newest baby-sitting charge, Betsy Sobak, is a great practical joker. After all, how much harm can one little girl do?

Plenty. Claudia breaks her leg as a result of one of Betsy's mean jokes... and now she's talking about quitting the club. Baby-sitting, she says, is just too dangerous. Kristy thinks Betsy needs to be taught a lesson. She also thinks the Baby-sitters are just the ones to do it.

Watch out, Betsy Sobak! The joke war is on!
