Middle Grade Monday features Logan Likes Mary Anne, the graphic novel adaptation of Ann M. Martin's immensely popular Babysitters Club series illustrated by Gale Galligan. The members of the BSC are starting eighth grade and busier than ever. They may need to get more members. Mary Anne is worried about everything about eighth grade, but intrigued by Logan, a new student with an adorable southern accent who is awfully cute and loves to babysit. Might he be interested in joining the club?

This graphic novel adaptation of the series is quite popular at TMS. Logan Likes Mary Anne is #8. The art is bright and energetic and the stories of friendship and entrepreneurship is relatable and fun. The series really sells itself. I don't really have to read them, but I like them. Wholesome and relatable.
