The Baby-Sitters Club Wiki

New York, New York! is the sixth book in the Baby-Sitters Club Super Special series.

Back Cover Summary[]

The Baby-sitters have always wanted to be sophisticated New Yorkers like Stacey. Well, now here's their chance: Stacey has invited them all to the city for a vacation!

In between shopping and seeing the sights, the Baby-sitters manage to have plenty of excitement. Jessi meets a boy ballerina, Claudia and Mallory take fancy art lessons, and Kristy makes a special friend. Dawn eats her way through the city, and Stacey and Mary Anne have a baby-sitting mystery!

Is New York as good as they've always dreamed? You bet!

Continuity and Inconsistencies[]

Continuity

  • This book takes place between books #44 and #45 in the regular series. Stacey is still friends with Laine, so some members of the BSC stay at Laine's family's apartment in NYC. This is the book where Jessi first meets Quint Walter, a romantic interest who appears several more times throughout the series.
  • Jessi dancing in Coppelia in Jessi's Secret Language

Inconsistencies

Trivia[]

  • The interior art in this book was illustrated by Henry R. Martin, the father of author Ann M. Martin. The art is intended to depict Claudia's sketches, so it is in a different style than most of the other Super Special books.
  • Numerous tourist sites in New York are also mentioned in passing such as the Statue of Liberty and the World Trade Center.
  • Dawn eats chocolate in this book.
