I’ve been reading the Baby-Sitter’s Club series for the past 18 or so years. I find most of my BSC books at local book stores but the newer books written later in the series (books #90 and up) are hard to find in the bookstores so I buy most of the books later in the series on amazon.com so I was really excited I found this book online since I couldn’t find it anywhere else! It’s a well written book about Claudia who starts sitting for some new neighbors, Joey and Nate Nicholls. They’re two sweet little boys aged 5 and 7. As Claudia sits for them more, she starts becoming more concerned with their father’s behavior towards his children. The children seem to fear their father which concerns Claudia. The father is always nice to Claudia but his friendliness seems forced. At first, Mr. Nicholls seems to get upset over little things and then one day after a sitting job and Claudia goes back into the house to get something she forgot, she witnesses an exchange that leaves her shaken up and upset…she realizes then that the father may be abusing the children, and in more ways than just emotional abuse. She then talks to the other members of the Baby-Sitter’s Club and then her mother, and they help her to come up with a resolution to the situation. And during all this, the BSC is helping their local clients plan an event to help celebrate St. Patrick’s Day. A very well written, interesting book that’s fun but also deals with a serious issue. Once again, Ann M. Martin produces another awesome book!

I love this book . It’s an amazing story ! It’s about Claudia s point of view and I think she has a good personality toward s the problem. It’s about this father of her babysitting charges who is soo o stricked and so o mean to his children! But you have to read to find out what happene s ! I highly recommend this book! I love it! You need to buy it! By halle karns

This book was a good one but at the end Mr. Nicholls wasn’t arrested which I think would have made a more exciting ending. Another thing would be if Mr. Nicholls had chased them to Stampford but they got away! Reviews always by Daphne

Claudia and the Terrible Truth is such an amazing book. My favorite thing about BSC books is that they deal with real-life problems. That’s exactly what this book does! It makes you happy, scared, sad, relieved..everything! 5 stars! I would definitely recommend.
