Author Ann M. Martin is writing a prequel to the Baby-Sitters Club—that classic late 80s, early 90s book series that taught pre-teen girls such important lessons as how to spot the symptoms of juvenile diabetes, what carob is, and why people who dress like color-blind lunatics are cooler than you. Shamefully, I am excited and (thanks to the auto-checkout machines at the library) will probably end up reading it. Please Ann M. Martin, be more gentle with my childhood than George Lucas was.
