    I liked the handwriting in the book (Mom says its the font, but I still liked it). I liked the story because it was funny when the mail lady was waving teh mail. It was sad when she missed her babysitter.

  12. I thought this book was weird because Bibi had to move away to take care of her father. I wondered why she couldn't ask someone else to do it. Rating ****
