They reduced her height on the new cover, I think. When I first saw the original I was like, wow, Jessi is sooo tall for eleven.

^ I'll have to check my cover now as I'm intrigued to see the super-tall Jessi. ;D

On the old cover Jessi looks like she's ... 18? She looks way old and way tall. Her styling is distinctly early 90s too.

Yeah, on the new cover she looks about the same height as the triplets I think, which makes more sense.

My copy of that book is a first printing. And yeah, Jessi's clothes are so outta style now. She's got jeans on with big patches sewn all over them or something. I really do heart the fact that most of my BSC books are first printings and are still in pretty good shape, although I would like to see the new cover. I'll have to see if my library has it.

This is more of a general thing, but I hated all the traveling back and forth to CA that Dawn did. It was like, "Dawn's living in CA for a few months." Then, a few books later, she's back. Then, a few more books down the road, she's back to CA again. Yeah, it had to be hard to have your family on two different coasts, but still...I just got a little tired of it, I guess.

^So did I. Other books I'm not crazy about - Kristy and the Baby Parade, Mary Anne vs. Logan, Mary Anne Misses Logan, Maid Mary Anne...gee, that makes it look like I hate Mary Anne! And I don't. I just think those three books of hers were rather lame.

^some of my favorites on that list ;D Mine too. ;D But individual preference, I guess. Anyone else not mind Dream Horse and #1 Fan (not one of my favorites but not too bad) I can't say that this is the "worst" because I know that they're just my least favorites but Jessi and the Horrible Prank, Dawn Saves the Planet, Fire at MA's House, Kristy and the Secret of Susan and Stacey and the Cheerleaders all come to mind. Also am not a big fan of Search for Tigger, Farewell Dawn or Dawn and Too Many Sitters.

^ I just read it this morning and have never minded it before but it just really kind of bored me (and I hate Robert ;D). I think it's just the mood I'm in, though, as I've had a really bad week.... Usually I don't mind it at all.
