Ha, I forgot about the mean letter. "Yours very meanly," that's awesome.

Yes she did. I thought that Karen got a little carried away. She could have explained the situation to Kristy instead of just assuming.

I felt sorry for Karen in this book. She gets into trouble without even trying. Her letter to Kristy was pretty funny.

I found this book a few days ago and re-read it, Lisa loved Hyacynthia even more than Karen

I think she just wanted her to treat an expensive present with the utmost care. After all, Lisa's mother gave it to her.

Yeah I understand that too, Hyacynthia was precious.

I felt a bit bad for Kristy. She was only trying to do something nice for Karen and Nancy, but it ended up backfiring. The note Karen sent Kristy was pretty funny though (reading it objectively as an adult). Kristy handled it well.

I reread this book. Been a long time, since I read this book. The letter Karen gave to Kristy was funny. I enjoy reading this book.

I thought it was funny how it was addressed in the end, but I still want to know what Kristy said to make Nancy think the doll was for her. Unless Nancy was greedy and really thought Karen was giving away an expensive doll, I couldn't accept a gift like that....

I laughed when Karen drew the skull and crossbones on the back of the nasty note to Kristy. I also chuckled at Andrew calling Hyacynthia "Hiawatha".
Does anyone else notice that the Karen model during this phase of the series has a really "dopey" look to her?

^ She is cute. I think most of the Karen models are cute. But she changes again in #26 - Karen's Duckings and that model is the quintessential Karen to me. I love Karen on the cover of Duckings (even though she looks kind of high, I like that, haha). I like her much better than "Dopey" Karen
