Oh, really? I never knew that! So Logan and Robert are destined for a military life, then! Heh.

They'd want to keep an eye on ol' Logan... ;D

I also thought the same person probably did all the handwritings. When they went on a trip and had various letters from other people in the back of the book, it all seemed to look the same. It's crazy how much the BSC's handwriting influenced my own. I went through the dotting Is phase. It's always consistently tended to look like Mary Anne's, though less slanted. I always got complimented on it in school. When I was more careful, my cursive would look pretty much like Kristy's. When I printed, it was Dawn. I started writing like Abby before I even read any of her books. So when I finally saw hers, I thought that was pretty cool. He probably needed attention...didn't Karen Brewer write in all caps too?

Someone should've told them that it was rude to shout all the time

Well, I think it has been mentioned that Logan is not always comfortable being surrounded by girls whenever he sits with them at lunch tables or at meetings. Maybe, in order to distinguish himself from them he writes in all capitals. Maybe all of the teasings have gotten to him and he is saying, through his choice of penmanship, that "hey, I'm not a girl" I'm just a boy that likes to babysit. Or maybe he has a little ego, like when he is over-protective or over-controlling of MA and his capital-letter writing reflects it.

Mine looks more like Kristy's, but I always loved Dawn's writing.

My cursive handwriting has always been like Kristy's. Sometimes my writing gets like Mallory's at times.
I thought Kristy, Abby and Dawn's were the easiest to read personally. Jessi's I didn't even bother to try to read half the time.

My handwriting is rather like Mallory's. I like hers best because it actually looks like handwriting and not a font like, say, Jessi's. And because it's easy to read. Cursive kills me - there's a short circuit in my brain somewhere, but it takes me forever to read.

When I was little and read them I skipped over any writing that was in cursive. Re-reading them now I realize how much I missed.

I'm just the opposite. I couldn't imagine ever skipping any of the handwriting parts. I read all the Chapter Twos, too.

I try to read all of the handwriting parts unless they are really hard to read and I'm just reading the book quickly. I just read parts of the chapter 2s though - just the parts about Stacey's illness, Claud in school and MA's Dad being strict to look for inconsistances and to see how it is worded - unless they start out especially funny.

^Shannon's was the only one I couldn't imitate. Mine always looked too sloppy.
