^ I'm really not sure. I know he's mentioned in one of the later books, before the Addisons move away. I'm thinking it was in one of the books in the Claudia goes back to grade seven arc, but I'm not positive. Even in that book, I'm not entirely sure that we see him. Sean didn't want him to know that he still has baby-sitters and is worried what will happen if Mel ever finds out. I guess Mel's still a bully!

^ You're right. It's Queen of the Seventh Grade, I think, when Sean keeps causing all of the problems like running away on Abby and canceling the sitting jobs.

Is that the book where we learn that Mel also has a baby-sitter, a female cousin that he's "very close" to...and that his real name is Melvin?
That part never stops being funny to me. Sean was a creepy, weird kid, but I did feel bad for him in that book. Being teased is never fun.

^ That's the book with Mel. That was kind of funny to me, too. Served him right. Was Sean a teaser, himself? If so, I can't feel a lot of pity for him because maybe he should be able to see how it feels to get picked on (since I definitely agree that it's never fun).

Like everyone else posted, both Sean and Mel are messed up. At least, we know why Sean is messed but I don't think we ever found out why Mel's so messed up. I remember in Beware, Dawn, he had to go to a psychologist but I'm not sure if it helped.

This sounds very creepy. It makes it sound like Mel and his cousin are intimate with each other.
