Description

Stacey McGill has a secret, and she's afraid it will keep her from fitting in with the Baby-Sitters Club. Stacey has diabetes, but she's determined not to let it get in her way. When a rival babysitting club starts stealing their clients, Stacey and her friends must band together to save their business. Poor Stacey. She just moved to a new town, is still coming to terms with her diabetes, and is facing baby-sitting problems left and right. Fortunately, Stacey has three new friends — Kristy, Claudia, and Mary Anne. Together they're the BSC, and they will deal with whatever's thrown their way...even if it's a rival baby-sitting club!
