About this Event
The Purple Couch Bookshop is thrilled to welcome middle-grade graphic novelist Ellen Crenshaw. Join us in-store on Saturday, October 18 fto celebrate the release of the newest Babysitters Club Graphic Novel, Jessi Ramsey, Pet Sitter.
We recognize that families will be attending together. Each group must purchase a copy of the book. Please make sure you have one paid ticket (the cost of the book), and free tickets for the rest of your group so we have appropriate seating.
About Jessi Ramsey, Pet Sitter: The Mancusis don't have any kids... but they sure do have a lot of pets! So when they're desperate for a sitter, who do they call? The Baby-sitters Club! Kristy feels pretty sure that the BSC does not pet-sit. But Jessi has always liked animals, and she talks Kristy into being okay with her taking the job.
With snakes on the loose and sick hamsters, Jessi's got plenty of pet-sitting troubles, and things don't get any easier when she and her friends get into a big fight. Will Jessi be able to handle her pet-sitting job when things are going wrong with the baby-sitters, too?
Ellen T. Crenshaw is the creator of the New York Times bestselling Baby-sitters Club graphic novel adaptations of Stacey's Mistake and Kristy and the Walking Disaster by Ann M. Martin. She is the cocreator, with Colleen AF Venable, of Kiss Number 8, which was nominated for an Eisner Award and longlisted for a National Book Award. She is also the creator of What Was the Turning Point of the Civil War?, a Who HQ graphic novel.
