Title of Book: The Secret Life Of Mary Anne Spier

Author: Ann M. Martin

Why did you choose to read this book?: I choose to read this book because I love the baby sitter club series. The cover was all glittery so I had to pick it up.

Theme (Main Idea of the Book): The theme of this book is Mary Anne getting a job at Wahington mall as a santa's helper (an elf). No one knows exept her friend Angela, who works with Mary Anne at the mall.

Setting (Time and Place): Stoneybrook, Conneticut, Washington Mall/Claudia's Room 5:30-6:00.

Plot (What Happens): Mary Anne uses her dads credit card for Christmas gifts, and she has to pay her dad all the money she used.She used alot of money, so she's in dept. So,she pays it off by getting a job as an elf. But she doesnt want her friends to find out. Her friends and family dont know that she works at the mall as an elf. She's coming to babysitter club meetings late, and not keeping up the peoples scheudule(she's in charge off the record book).So she's kind of living a double life.

Characters: Mary Anne, Kristy, Claudia, Dawn, Stacey, Abby, Jessi, Mallory, Logan(Mary Anne's Boyfriend), Mary Anne's dad, and Angela.

Fictional books always have main characters. Describe one main character in this book in detail. How did he/she look? What age was he/she? What was his/her personality like? What was the importance of this character to the story? Did you like this character? Why or Why not? The main charecter in this book to me is Mary Anne. She has short brown hair to her ears, and has brown eyes.It doesnt say in the book how old Mary Anne is. She has a boy friend named Logan Bruno. Her mom died when she was 3. Her step sister is Dawn. Dawn is a member of the babysisters club, and Dawn's brother (Jeff) moved to California with his dad. Mary Anne's dad is very strict. She is also shy. I kind of like this charecter because she is very patient with people she doens'nt like, but I dont like shy people. I like outgoing people.
