Mary Anne and the Playground Fight (Baby-Sitters Club)

6 reviews
Ann M. Martin

Apple (Scholastic), 1998

Intriguing view on competition...
Mary Anne, who hates confrontation, is embroiled in a heated arguement over playground jobs. In the part where Kristy is arguing and tells Mary Anne to butt out, Logan shouldn't have butted in and snapped at Kristy. Mary Anne doesn't need Logan to fight her battles. If I were Mary Anne, I would have told him to butt out! Of course, Mary Anne's too polite for that, but I bet she was seething ...

Mallory's leaving. Can the BSC go on without her?
Mary Anne in the Middle was a very good book. One of the best BSC books written so far. Mallory hates SMS, and wants to go to a boarding school. When she gets accepted, she tells Mary Anne first. Jessi finds out, and now she is furious at Mallory. Mallory is angry at Jessi for not understanding. Poor Mary Anne is stuck in the middle. Besides Jessi, Mallory's siblings are all mad at her as ...

Beautiful Cover Illustration - Classic Story
I loved that this was an unabridged version of the classic! Often when a well known artist releases a new version of a beloved book it is highly condensed. This is the original full text of a charming book and the talented Mary Englebreit created a beautiful cover while leaving the integrity of the book in tact. This is a MUST HAVE for Anne fans, and just in time for her centennial ...

Mary Magdalen: In the Visions of Anne Catherine Emmerich

Mary Magdalen
Gives some good insights. Raises some questions, however. It describes Mary the mother of Jesus as having an older sister. Per the Protoevangelium Jacobi, Anna and Joacim were childless before the birth of Mary.

Mary Anne's Bad-Luck Mystery
I really like all the BSC books, but this one is just a little bit better than the average ones. Mary Anne gets a chain letter and tempts bad luck by throwing it away and breaking the chain. When bad things start to happen, the girls are a little freaked out - and then a bad luck charm arrives for Mary Anne. With it is a note, telling her that she has to wear it "or else!" Not wanting their ...

A Portrait of Egypt: A Journey Through the World of Militant Islam

Mary Anne Weaver

Farrar, Straus and Giroux, 2000

A Political Portrait
Don't expect a history of Egypt or a travel guide in this book--you won't find that kind of information--but you will find a very credible political analysis of Egypt today. I thought I was savvy about mid-East politics, but this book taught me a lot. Mary Ann Weaver makes a convincing case for the belief that Egypt is a ticking bomb of political discontent. I appreciate her thoughtful ...

GRAPHIX, 2007

Very well done!
This third in the Baby Sitters Club (BSC) series of graphic novels is my favorite so far. Raina's drawings seem more detailed and lively in each successive book. I've been buying the BSC graphic novels for my niece who is finding real inspiration in the artwork while simply enjoying Ann Martin's time-honored stories, and I heartily recommend this series both for the clean, yet engaging stories, ...

Ann M. Martin

Apple (Scholastic), 1997

What a wonderful story of raw courage!
Excellent! A great book on overcoming fear. Mary Anne is filled with so many fears, including facing an emergency and also a fear of losing Logan because of his dad's hairbrained idea to send him to boarding school. Mary Anne learns that being brave isn't about never feeling scared, but feeling the fear and doing what you have to do anyway. I thought it was so beautiful they way she ...

The Life of the Blessed Virgin Mary by Ann Catherine Emmerick
I know this book. It is extremely valuable in content and articulation. I need to alert someone about the fact I tried to order 2 of these books besides the bood on Mary Magdalen by the same author, bringing my purchase over $20.00, thus avoiding shipping charges. I hope this is understood. Del Rhames

Scholastic, 1995

Funny, yet poignant...
Amusing summer story, yet you kind of think, poor Mary Anne. She's helping set up Camp BSC, but so many things are going wrong for her & she's feeling down. When kind of tender, cute scene is when her dad goes on a business trip & as Mary Anne is kissing him goodbye, she realizes how much she'll miss him & almost starts to cry right there in the airport (which she's done when Dawn heads ...

Not only for new cooks
This is excellent for new cooks and really good for old cooks...experience old, not age old as a lot of us refuse to age. New cooks to preserving will find step by step instructions. Old cooks will find new recipes...the pickled asparagus was undescribable. The spicy hot green beans added to a Bloody Mary can't be beat. On a cold winter day while cheering the Chicago Bears (even IF they ...

Excellent Book! A Tearjerker!
In this book, Mary Anne's house burned down due to faulty kitchen wiring. She's very upset and in total shock. She loved the colonial farmhouse she moved to with her father after his marriage to Dawn's mother. Mary Anne loses almost everything during the fire. Her clothes, books, diaries, letters, pictures, etc. are gone, but she found some jewelry, her mom's picture, and her recent diary. Even ...
