I wonder if Natalie will keep anything else from her former existence or just the glasses wearing. Yes. That's my biggest take away from this. Seriously though, I liked this one well enough. It's weird, but while I remember getting my glasses for the first time and needing them for awhile beforehand (without realizing it), I have no real memory of massive headaches from needing them. But I do remember not super loving the idea of needing them, even though genetically speaking I was doomed like K...
I liked this book. I didn't know if I would actually like it but i did. I like how it has Kristy's family and Karen's mom in it too. If you like the babysitters club books I would recommend this book to you.
Ughhhh, can these books BE any cuter? Please, Scholastic, let Katy Farina adapt all 122 Little Sister books (and 6 Super Specials!) and I will be happy forever. The artwork is perfect, Karen is a mood and I am here for it. There are so many panels where I cackle at her expressions - and yet, despite this, I think the brattiness that Karen is infamously known for is dialed back. (Though to be honest, I've always loved Karen's stories and never found her as insufferable as the rest of the BSC fan...
Super cute and reminded me of my glasses days. Can't wait for the next one.
Another great blast from the past! I remember when I first got glasses and am glad I didn't have anyone bully me about them!
Cute and relatable, up to and including the fact that people don't always appreciate it when you stand up for them. I do wonder how many kids actually get teased for wearing glasses these days, though, since it's so common, even among very young children.I know that this spin-off is for the younger kids, but Karen's recitation about how she's a "two-two" in every single book gets to be a little old by the fifth time you read it.
Really cute graphic novel. Also very relatable for a second grader who has to transition to wearing glasses.
Karen's unhappy when it turns out she needs glasses just in time for school pictures. It's a fairly typical take on the subject, with reluctance to wear the glasses and teasing from a classmate all resolved in time for a happy ending, but I enjoyed it all the same. Karen seems more reasonable, perhaps because the book has jumped ahead to 2nd grade, and she has actually matured slightly.If you are worried about spoilers, changes to the Brewer household are shown here that have not yet occurred in...
I'm glad she likes your glasses!!!!
glasses rule!It was good to see the issue of glasses, bullying and discrimination shown. The difficulty of wearing glasses young is the name calling. It is a shame that the teacher did nothing to work it out but I was glad to see her become more comfortable with them as time went on.
Wow, after reading this, I actually liked this! For once, Karen wasn't a total dick to everybody! I felt bad that Karen had to get glasses because I had to get some too. I liked that Karen controlled her anger in this one. Thank GOD I didn't burn this shit. Well I guess I actually liked this series for once. I haven't been this nice to the series ever since book 1.(I BUY GOOD BOOKS!) OMG EXCATLY WHAT I NEEDED!!!! freevbucks.com
obviously light-hearted and fun since it's directed for 8-10 years olds I think. Read just because I liked the baby sitters graphic novel series and the little sisters series is similar just based on Kristy's little sister Karen.
Ah, getting glasses for the first time. I remember that 🤓 This was a cute story about Karen getting her new glasses, how she adjusts to them, and how she helps out a friend who needs them as well.
I LOVE THE SERIES OF THE BOOKS
This graphic novel has a great message.
Super cute and relatable! I know I read the Little Sister books when I was younger (even if I don't remember the plots AT ALL) and I can totally see why I gravitated to them instead of the Baby-sitter's Club. I am much more like Karen (even the bratty parts lol). This book was great with showing the feelings of getting glasses (I remember vividly getting mine). I didn't love the interactions with Ricky because I think Karen forgave him a little too quickly for how horrible he was. But I still re...
3.5 -- Not my favourite in the series, but as an adult, I can super relate to Karen's glasses delimma.
Karen is reticent about getting glasses but becomes comfortable with them by the end of the book. Coincidentally, Ricky Torres also needs glasses and she does not tease him about them even though he spent the middle chunk of the book calling her an owl.
I really liked this one except for the glaring plot hole of them adopting an entire sibling and never mentioning how/why/when
This would be a good book for a kid who has to get glasses. Karen needs glasses and her dilemma is if she should wear them in her school picture or not. I get that. I hate the way I look in glasses and usually take them off for pictures.
