Amy has just finished the babysitting course at the community center. The class has taught her basic first aid, changing a diaper and games to play with the children but it didn't teach her what to do when two thugs break in to the house. Amy is left in charge three year old Kendra for a few hours while her mother is out. The story continues with Amy and Kendra being kidnapped and what happens in the days that follow. Like many of Kehret's books there is suspense and action, but in the end it usually turns out alright. As a former babysitter (and sometimes current!) I had to think back to my teenage years and if I would have been as brave as Amy.
Typically readers of this blog read reviews of adult books, but because as the Youth Services Librarian, I read kids books! For those looking for a very quick read for themselves or their children this was a good read.
