My favorite Claudia book has to be Claudia and the Phantom Phone Calls (it is also my favorite book in the entire series with Logan Likes Mary Anne), I am reading it with a 9 year old I tutor, and she is starting to really like the BSC books! It is also helping her reading comprehension! I also like Keep Out, Claudia and Claudia and the Perfect Boy and Claudia Kishi Live from WTSO and Claudia and the Sad Goodbye a lot. Actually, it might be safe to say that I like most of her books. I don't think any of them are on the list of the ones I like the less.

I think I actually like a lot of the later Claudia books and the ones where she sees that she can actually be good at something other than art - WSTO and Perfect Boy and the ones where she tutors. Queen of the Seventh Grade, too. Not sure that I do like that whole book but I like Claudia more in it than usual. ;D I do like the whole book of Freind Friend (except the title ;D) though.

^ She should just say "screw you guys, I'll spell it however I want. You guys seem to always get what I'm saying."

I like a lot of Claudia books. My favourites are Phantom Phone Calls, Middle School Mystery and Genius of Elm Street. Though I also like Perfect Boy and Claudia Makes Up Her Mind. The kids' colour war was lame (I don't think I've read it entirely, ever) but other than that it was a good read.

Lately, I've actually really liked the Claudia books I've read. I really like Claudia and the Mystery in the Photograph and Claudia Kishi, Live from WSTO! She's funny and seems like she would be a really good friend.

^ I remember in Here Comes the Bride that he said she's really funny. Forgive me, I don't remember him giving much compliments to them but he may have. I dunno.

I had forgotten that Jeff said that about Claudia. ;D I don't remember her being that funny but maybe I'm forgetting some of the good moments. (other than her dumbness in books like World's Cutest Baby making me laugh ;D)

Genius of Elm Street was one I loved to reread.

I actually really like all of Claudia's books. She's very good at telling mysteries or rather they're very well written.

Maybe that has something to do with how much she enjoys mysteries herself.

I actually really like all of Claudia's books. She's very good at telling mysteries or rather they're very well written. Claudia has two of my least favorite mysteries (mystery at her house, mystery at the museum), and two of my most favorite (clue in the photograph, recipe for danger).

I haven't actually got a great deal of her books, but she's really grown on me and might even be my favourite at the moment.
Definate favourite/s is a tie between Mean Janine and New Girl, followed closely by Phantom phone calls.
