My immediate thought is I wish we could read the name on the ice cream containers. The yellow and red reminds me of Denny's. I know Mary Anne is the person sitting next to Claudia while Kristy is in red but for some reason I always want/think it to be the other way around, maybe because MA has a clearer ponytail, lol that sounds silly I know but true. Is Claudia wearing one necklace with a large cross and something underneath or are they two separate necklaces like she wears on the cover of Claudia's Friend? I love how we get to see a glimpse into the Rosebud Café and sure would love to go there for ice cream myself ETA: The picture of the book cover has disappeared (until I refreshed this page)!

I've always liked the covers like this one, showing the girls just hanging out and doing teenager-y things, not necessarily related to the book. I don't know why, but they feel bittersweet to me - contrasting a happy, carefree scene with the foreboding title and tagline.
Mary Anne looks really pretty here. Kristy looks pretty good too. I can't tell - is she wearing a hoodie, or just a sweater? It would be a nice touch if she were wearing a hoodie. I like that Claudia's wearing some things that have appeared on other covers. I think her ankh necklace has appeared on at least two other covers? And her black leggings and brown cowboy boots too.

^It does look like Kristy is wearing a hoodie because of the thickness of the collar, especially on the left. I don't think (unless Kristy was like me and sometimes pulled at her shirts that came into close--unlike Kristy I can't stand turtlenecks for that reason) a sweater would be that scooped.

I've always enjoyed this cover. Dawn looks super cute. Over time, I'm trying to overlook the fact that if Mary Anne stood up, she'd most likely tower over Claud.

Love Dawn here! It looks like two necklaces on Claud. The Rosebud looks cute. An old-fashioned ice cream parlor type place opened here a few years ago but didn't last too long.

The size difference between Mary Anne and Kristy's ice cream containers makes me smile. Of course Kristy would get a large. I call BS on Claudia just standing there with a perfectly intact ice cream cone.

^I never noticed that. I do remember MA telling us she typically doesn't have a big appetite and think it was Mal who may have said that to her MA often ate like a rabbit. I think in one book MA and maybe Jessi split a twinkie because MA wasn't too hungry and Jessi was wanting to watch what she ate. I believe that was when Mal said that but could be wrong. I do get a kid's scoop a baskin and robbins always both for price and also amount. I do, and Claudia might be proud, ask for extra hot fudge sauce (I don't care for whip cream, nuts, or cherries)

Someone also said Mary Anne ate like a bird but I'm forgetting which book.

^LOL, I just reread my post and have no clue, absolutely none, I mean it is August nowhere near Easter why I was thinking of rabbits. Maybe I wanted to post a hello to my stuffed rabbit Minty or a hi to Peter Rabbit in Claudia and Crazy Peaches? I meant bird! For some reason I think the other person could have been Mimi and in reference to a time when the girls were under stress from something and weren't very hungry which was why Mimi made that comment and out of concern. I will keep an eye out for it.

I think Mary Anne's haircut looks like a boys. Dawn's jeans look bad on her.
