Ivy and Bean Take Care of the Babysitter Audiobook

" I loved the Ivy and Bean series because it told a story of two friends who had a great relationship and what they did together and how they weren't always friends. "

" The characters were wonderfully creative, but their behavior was intolerable. I really found myself appalled by the way the girls (and the big sister) were acting. Maybe I should read a different one in this series, because based only on this one, I won't be recommending. "

" This is a children's book. Not my thing. "

" The relationship between Bean and her older sister Nancy in the "Ivy and Bean" series is shallow. Unfortunately, this installment is based almost entirely on the animosity between them. I don't doubt that the relationship between a middle-school girl and her rambunctious 2nd grade sister can be a fraught one, but I have yet to see a moment shared between the sisters that is kind or understanding or based in any fondness. This causes a lack of complexity to the characters. Indeed, Nancy is one-note: the middle school girl who is shallow, selfish, and vain. That annoys me. In this one, Bean does something dangerous she's been warned not to do - goes into the attic crawlspace - gets trapped, but then manipulates the situation to get money out of Nancy who shows real concern that Bean was in trouble. This made me sympathize with Nancy. Ivy and Bean come off as little connivers in this one, which I really didn't like. Overall, it's a light book with some fun and suspense built in, and I like the spunk, creativity and enthusiasm in both Ivy and Bean, but I don't know if Fran will remember this series a week after we complete it. "

" I loved this book because Bean's sister Nancy babysits them and she does a poor job. Bean has to help her out and ends up earning a little money herself. "

" I enjoy Ivy and Bean. "

" I would give this one more stars (because I love Ivy and Bean), except that this one brought back some substitute teacher nightmares. I think I prefer them being witches or future paleontologists to being delinquents. "

" I always enjoy Ivy and Bean. So creative and always into genuinely childish mischief. They bring back fond memories of my own childhood shenanigans. "

" I likd how they sneke. "

" I don't think I would want to babysit Ivy and Bean. Poor Nancy! "

" This a lovely little book about Bean and her annoying big sister Nancy, who acts as the babysitter in this book. There are a good few pictures in this book, and the story is very good. "

" This book was amazing. I loved it. I liked the part where Nancy put on makeup. "

" I think this is my Fav so far. Bean thinking about eating bugs is funny, but gross! At first I thought Ivy and Bean were going to break apart! "

" good book... not my favorite. "

" Bean' sister is babysitting her for the first time. Lots of imaginative play and trouble, as is to be expected with Ivy and Bean. "

" This book is one of my favorite childhood books! i mostly recommend it for 6-10 year old kids "

" it's because nancy the big sister of bean has to be the babysitter of bean for the rest of the time of the day. i liked when bean escaped. i liked everything. "

" I can imagine myself getting into just the kind of trouble these two got into in this book! Extremely well-done; the dynamic with the older sister is especially good. "

" Ellie LOVES the Ivy and Bean books, she thinks she is one of them and has connected in a way that she does not generaly do. And I enjoy them as well (I usually like to just read them classics but this one was fun) "

" Cute enough early chapter book that I read to my daughter! "

" Bella and I both really enjoyed this series. The characters are funny and likable, and the illustrations are delightful! Great for mom and child alike. "

" Little Miss checked out another Ivy and Bean audiobook. She really enjoyed it, and Legomeister seemed to like it too. It was cute, in a "I hope my kids don't start acting like that" kind of way. "

" So far, there's not an Ivy and Bean book Sophia doesn't love. "

" In my opinion this book was the worst out of all of them. It need to be longer and need to have more detail. It is better for someone who is just starting to read. "

" i think it was cool all i have to say about nancy is why is she playing with make up when you not so pose to play with it all i have to say is she better get it to gerther "

" this book was not very fun but it was easy i finished it in an hour and a half "

" The adventures of Ivy and Bean continue in the latest installment from series creators Annie Barrows and Sophie Blackall. In Ivy and Bean Take Care of the Babysitter, the two girls hatch a plan to prove that Bean's big sister is the world's worst babysitter. Of course plans go awry, but fun ensues! "

" As charming and delightful as the first three...maybe more so. "

" i'd browsed through Ivy + Bean before, but never actually read one... very sweet and cute, with just enough mischief thrown in to make it fun. "

" Cute book though these 7 yr old girls are kind of nasty to each other and Bean's older sister "

" Cute chapter book which will have second-graders giggling. "

" I loved the Ivy and Bean series because it told a story of two friends who had a great relationship and what they did together and how they weren't always friends. "

" I love to recommend this series to female readers who are just beginning chapter books. They zip through them in no time. Now I see why. What child doesn't like a good mischievous character? Along the same lines as Junie B. Jones, these trouble makers are sure to be loved by the girls in your life. "

" This book is a great book to read when you are 7 or 8, or just starting to read chapter books. "

" My little sister recommended these for my daughter. I really enjoyed it. The characters were real little girls. I felt like I was reading about my daughter in a few years. I am a bit worried about the ideas it will give her, though. She already has some interesting ones. "

" Great story about a neighborhood friendship. Can't wait to read the others in the series. "
