Book came falling apart.

The story was good but the book itself was failing apart—pages coming out. Very disappointed.

wow, ann this one is the best one yet!

i applaud ann m. martin! she's done it again! this book, may seem broing and stupid if you're not into sport but it's really interesting! in this book, kristy meets bart taylor, a guy who is coaching a team of his own! and kristy really likes him! it shows her dealing with her boy problems, and kristy's krusher having good spirit! you don't have to be good at a sport to have fun, just try your best!

They Have To Win!

Kristy's little brother, David Michael and Karen wants to play on a softball team, so Kristy starts a ragtag team of her own. With Jackie Rodowsky, The Walking Disaster, playing for them, Kristy's Krushers aren't world champions. But nobody beats them when it comes to team spirit. Now i told you they have to win because there is someone bullying them, It's Bart's Bashers. The Bashers are laughing at them because they even have a baby on their team. Plus, Kristy's Krushers does not do well. When someone makes a mistake, we should laugh at them, right? We should also bully our neighbors like Bart's Bashers did to Kristy's Krushers. I guess people aren't just kind to your neighbors. Some of them might be bad. This is why i wrote this moral lesson: When i was on Grade 4, i was like a tough guy like Kristy, but i was tougher than her before. I kept writing notes to my enemies, i even stole a book from the school. It al changed when i bought this book. This book had manners whether to laugh at people or not. I wished Bart's Bashers just helped Kristy's Krushers instead of laughing at them. In the Baby sitters club series there are 131 issues. But i only have Kristy's Great Idea, Claudia And Phantom Phone Calls, Mary Anne Saves The Day, Dawn And The Impossible Three, Boy Crazy Stacey, The Ghost At Dawn's House, Claudia And The New Girl, Hello Mallory, Mary Anne's Bad Luck Mystery, Mallory And The Trouble With Twins, Dawn's Wicked Stepsister, Mary Anne And Too Many Boys, Claudia's Friend, Kristy's Worst Idea, Happy Holidays, Jessi, Stacey, The Math Whiz, Claudia Makes Up Her Mind. After the book, there is a special note from Ann. M Martin saying that "Jackie Rodowsky was already in "LOGAN LIKES MARY ANNE". After the note, There is a letter about the author, Saying that she has published Baby Little Sister, BSC, BSC Mysteries, Me And Katie[The Pest[. After that, There are notebook pages asking your name, What is your grade and so on. There is also a notebook page about "KRISTY AND THE WALKING DISASTER". There are pages saying that read all of Kristy Books like Kristy's Great Idea, Kristy's Big Day, Kristy And The Snobs, Kristy And The Walking Disaster, Kristy And the Mother's Day Surprise, Kristy And The Secret Of Susan, Kristy's Mystery Admirer.... After that, There's a special order form i hadn't used yet. I Think other girls[ not me] shall join THE BABY SITTERS CLUB. I really enjoyed this book. This book has many funs!

Meagan's Review

Yes I did like this book because it's by one of my favorite author because I have read a lot of books by that author. The thing that I like about her books is that they are always books that I have to read. There has never been any of her books that I haven't wanted to read and I have already read some of her books more than once. That's how much I love reading her books. The book was about this girl called Kristy and some little kids who are either too young to be in the little league or have never played Softball. Kristy is willing to be a coach of 20 kids. Kristy's team is called Kristy's Krushers. When the Krushers play their first game, they play awesome even though they lose 6 to11. I would recommend this book to anybody who likes books by Ann M Martain.

Very good!

The characterization is strong, with a good mix of characters. Kristy is a good example of a round character, but Jamie Newton is a flat character. The conflicts are also strong.

Do you want to know who the walking disaster is.

I think this is a very good book. It is about a girl named Kristy and how she makes a softball team out of any kid that wants to be in one. The kids that are on the team don't really know how to play that good. They all put their best effort to get better and they do. Kisty;s team is called Kristy;s Krushers with a K. Then they play against a Bart;s Bashers(Kristy has a big crush on him). Bart's team is beter and they are all bigger than kristy's,so read the book to find out what happens next.
