For some reason I always pictured Claire as a blonde even though I know she has brown hair.

Margo is kind of boring huh? All I remember about her is that she can peel a banana with her feet and she likes to barf in the car. Man, I need to get more of the books.

Poor Margo - I really like her for some reason. I'm surprised thinking about it now that Mom didn't mention the banana peeling thing about Margo as this totally grosses her out (she HATES bananas - even the mention of them). I'll have to remind her of it

There's one LS book that features Margo quite a bit (Maybe "Karen's Mermaid" but I can remember exactly). I remember that Karen thinks Margo brags too much (lol) so I always picture Margo as kind of like Karen.

I was just thinking about Karen's mermaid today when thinking about the Pike kids. She seemed pretty cute in those illustrations.

I just remembered a book with a subplot where Margo shoplifts. Anyone remember what book this is in?

Ohh that little girl is so cute and looks just how I'd picture Claire omg I totally forgot about when Margo shop lifts. I like Margo a lot, she doesn't seem at all like Karen to me... she seems a bit more reserved, I think maybe because of dealing with Claire all the time. Margo is a cutie though (but what the heck kind of name is Margo?!)

When I was nine or ten (so 1993ish) I was "camp friends" (we rode on the same bus) with a girl named Margot (she was a couple of years younger than me, I think, probably around the same age as Margo Pike.) But it IS an odd name for a kid!

Literally. After all, Karen's daddy is a real live millionaire, and Margo's *gasp* LOST HIS JOB! Which clearly never happens in Stoneybrook. Edited to add: was the time Claire got into bed with Stacey the time she was completely naked? 'Cause if so...couldn't have written that these days, boy.

^ No, I don't think that was the time Claire was naked - at least I hope not since that is almost kind of sick. I think that the time she was naked was in Sea City. I will have to check because now I'm curious. Agree that couldn't (and shouldn't) be written now.

It seems like a normal, innocent thing for a kid to do, but if it was, I would hope Stacey made her get some clothes on first I think they both occurred in Sea City.

Claire is my favorite Pike kid because I'm the baby of the family with four older brothers too. One of them is even named Adam. I thought that was so cool when I was younger.
