(3) 4-6 Baby-Sitters Club series. Illustrated by Raina Telgemeier. Color by Braden Lamb. The full-color graphic-novel adaptation of Martin's classic series continues. Volume four focuses on artistic daydreamer Claudia, whose frustration with "perfect" big sis Janine is exacerbated when their beloved grandmother has a stroke. Meanwhile, the entrepreneurial friends struggle with their latest venture: a playgroup. Telgemeier's art complements and updates the classic series, ably delineating the nuances of family relationships and friendships alongside babysitting hijinks.
