Dawn and the Impossible Three by Ann M. Martin
4.0
I realized that I might want to get back into reading these books for fun again because my inner tween loved getting back into the world of the babysitters club.
I originally picked this book to read to meet a requirement for a reading challenge, but I realized I am happy I got to jump into this story because it was a feeling of nostalgia that made me feel good.
I will say that even though I know the girls in the babysitter's club are in middle school, with the way they behave and the experiences that some of them have, it is hard to see them as middle school-age. It is giving high schools, at times, the thought processing they have.
I love this story of Dawn and really like her character. I love how open-minded and progressive she is in her thinking of things and how kind she redirects mindsets of specific gender norms. For example, Buddy Barrett said that boys don't wear aprons. The kind correction was nice to see. Also, the storyline of the friendship development between Kristy and Dawn and the understanding of the difficulties of divorce not only on the adults but the children involved.
This is a middle-grade book, so its themes are not complex, but it is a fun and light-hearted read.
