Oh, I'm just looking at that now... So it goes from left to right: mayor, Jessi, Dawn, Claudia and Mallory? Is that right? They all look terrible. Actually, the one a next pages over, where Jamie is running to the castaways, is really bad as well.

Oh! I didn't like Stacey on the cover of Truth About Stacey, she looked way too old and kind of... chubby? Charlotte looked adorable though. Heh, I actually kind of like that cover. I think she looks like a cute, bubbly 12 year old. Not exactly sophisticated, but maybe "sophisticated" in the 12 year old sense. Although, I do agree with you that she looks kind of chubby. Weird, since she's always described as really thin. I hate the new cover for Mary Anne Saves the Day. Mary Anne looks like she's dressed up in her naughty schoolgirl costume (come on, that skirt is nowhere near her knees!) and the paramedic guy looks like he stepped off the cover of a cheesy romance novel.

OMG lol I totally agree about the new cover of MA Saves The Day!! She looks really skanky and the paramedic is like, the guy of Stacey's dreams.

I think you can find some of the worst covers on the Super Specials - at least, some of the worst covers I've seen - on Babysitters Island Adventure the girls all look terrible. MA looks sorta OK, but waaaay taller than everybody else. The girls look nice on The Babysitters on Board, but they look nothing like how they look on the other books. Also, Kristy and Mary Anne have the same face!

I agree. There are just way too many covers where MA looks so tall. Isn't she supposed to be like the second shortest person in the eighth grade?

^And isn't Stacey supposed to have a sophisticated perm? Which book cover features that?! In Stacey's Mistake, she says she stopped perming her hair and now it's just fluffy or something. I was surprised it was so early in the series. I'm pretty sure she did it again later, though. Wasn't that her whole thing in Snowbound? Did she change her mind or did the writers just forget that she stopped?

^ I remember reading that she stopped in Stacey's Mistake, but she definitely mentions having a perm on later occasions, the most memorable being - as you mentioned - Snowbound.

Does anyone know where I can see the new covers of the early books? The discussion about the nrew cover of MA Saves the Day has intrigued me...

Why is there a prostitute on the cover of Claudia and the Perfect Boy? Oh nevermind, that's just Claudia.

^ She did look skanky there, didn't she? With her rolling her eyes and arms crossed, a high maintenance one at that.

You should be able to see new covers on amazon or even ebay.

Kristy reminds me of Jo on Facts of Life for the cover of Baby-sitter's on Board.
