Dawn and the Impossible Three by Ann M. Martin

3.0

Dawn was always my least favourite of the Babysitters Club. There was always something about her self righteous healthy eating hippy vibe that I hated as a kid. I can confirm that rereading as an adult, she's still my least favourite.

In this installment we are introduced to newly divorced Mrs Barrett and her three kids Buddy, Susie and Marnie. Not going to lie, aside from the comments about Mrs Barrett being unbelievably chic and gorgeous, I could relate. Give the woman a break. Her ex-husband is clearly a jerk who won't pay his child support and she's having to juggle twenty things at a time. Adulting is hard. She doesn't need any judgy comments about her dirty house Dawn.

I did chuckle at the conversation between Dawn and her mother about buying premade potato salad at the grocery store. Sharon is amazed that you could even get that kind of thing in a shop and she doesn't have to make stuff for the BBQ. Revolutionary.
