Which LS books are the most terrible in terms of Karen behavior? Which books would you rather burn than let your kids read for fear that Karen may rub off on them?

I wouldn't go as far as wanting to burn them, but she was totally bratty in these ones:
Karen's Pizza Party
Karen's School
Karen's Baby Sitter (after these last two, I lost interest in reading the books cause I felt I was getting old for them)
Karen's Birthday
Karen's New Year

i don't remember what this one was called...karen's surprise or karen's turkey or something, but definitely the one where she's playing the turkey in the thanksgiving play and makes up an entire solo part for herself without telling anyone.

Yeah that was Karen's Surprise. I really love that book though, mostly for reading about all the food and the creative process behind the play
She was also bratty in Karen's Doll when talking to the receptionist at the hospital

The only book I ever really hated Karen in was the one where Addie Sydney joined the class. Karen said this horribly annoying line about how she was going to be Addie's best friend but Addie was never going to be her best friend.

Karen's New Year. I don't reread the LS books but I still remember her calling out Nannie on not putting in effort at her...physical therapy? Not sure if I'm remembering that one correctly.

i don't read the LS books unless i'm desperate for something to read, but the couple that i have read are pretty bad. in karen's telephone trouble (is that what it's called?) it annoys me that she has a million chances to come clean to her father, but she lies every step of the way. plus her face on the cover is really annoying, and i wanted to punch her. but karen's stepmother really bothers me. i would be devastated if anybody EVER disrespected me the way karen treated elizabeth. seven is old enough to know better, and elizabeth put up with a lot of karen's crap.
