Claudia and the Bad Joke: “Autographs are dumb”
Poor Claudia gets stuck baby-sitting a practical joker and it turns out her pranks are decidedly NOT funny. (“Oh haha… YOU BROKE MY LEG.”) Anne and Emily grill Esme on what the F is up with Betsy Sobak. Are practical jokes inherently antisocial? Also, Anne relives a little of her golden age at ELLEgirl and we discuss both punk’d and Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul. This book is weird, unless you like fake vomit and dribble glasses.
“Stuck in Stoneybrook” is edited by Emily Crandall. Theme song written and recorded by Gary Shaller, performed by the band Kid Kit. Need some books that we mentioned?
