I loved Kristy in SS 1 in her relationship with Mr. Staples and how excited she was over everything. Her enthusiasm was realistic since she'd never been anywhere and I enjoyed reading about her in this one. Even her traits were much less exaggerated.

^How do you make those signatures? Do you use Photoshop or a program like it?

^ Actually, I just use digital image suite 10. I find it really easy to use - much easier than photoshop - also much, much cheaper. ;D

I know this is totally random, but when I read "Kristy's Great Idea," I found out the exact date she got her idea- by going backwards from the first notebook entry and making a list like this:
- September 24- first baby-sitting jobs - September 19- First meeting officially held - September 17- Their first ad was published - September 13- They designed their first ad, officers were elected - September 12- Claudia came up with the BSC logo at recess - September 11- Kristy and Mary Anne met Stacey - September 10- Kristy told Mary Anne and Claudia her "great idea"
- September 9, 1986- Kristy had her great idea! (And it was actually a Tuesday. It's nice to see that the book was even consistent with the calendar for that year).
I know, I have no life. ;D Even though it's way in advance, I just figured we could plan on honoring Kristy that day, or something. ;D

^ Definitely. ;D I wonder if AMM remembers the day she got the idea for the series. I doubt it, though. I wouldn't even though I'm usually good with dates. ;D

Ann didn't get the idea for the series, someone at Scholastic did. She was hired to write the first four books when she was a new writer there.

^ I had no idea. So the books aren't really "hers" at all.....

Well, she did write most of teh books, and I believe she created the characters herself.
