Mary Anne's Bad-Luck Mystery (The Baby-Sitters Club, #17) QUOTES

1 " The best way to get this point across is to describe to you what Claudia was wearing at lunch that day. It was her vegetable blouse: an oversized white shirt with a green vegetable print all over it — cabbages and squashes and turnips and stuff. Under the blouse was a very short jean skirt, white stockings, green anklets over the stockings, and lavender sneakers, the kind boys usually wear, with a lot of rubber and big laces and the name of the manufacturer in huge letters on the sides. Wait, I’m not done. Claudia had pulled the hair on one side of her head back with a yellow clip that looked like a poodle. The hair on the other side of her head was hanging in her face. Attached to the one ear you could see was a plastic earring about the size of a jar lid. Awesome. "

2 " I’ve read enough Stephen King books to know that you don’t go fooling around with the supernatural. "

3 " I just love checking our mailbox. There is something about getting mail that is exciting. Going out to the box each afternoon is sometimes the highlight of my day. "

4 " And having said that, I got up and stalked off to the school library, where I went looking for Little Women. It’s one of my favorite books, and I thought that reading some familiar passages might be comforting. "
