Scholastic Canada – Baby-sitters on Board! Book Tour

Baby-Sitters Club Forever! 📚 An exclusive Canadian event featuring bestselling cartoonists Raina Telgemeier and Gale Galligan — the only Canadian stop on the Baby-Sitters on Board! book tour. During an interactive presentation, fans will hear how Raina and Gale created their brand-new graphic novel adaptation, The Baby-Sitters Club Super Special #1: Baby-Sitters on Board!, and will leave inspired to write and draw their own stories.

Immediately following the presentation, there will be a photo opportunity with the creators in the lobby (one photo per family).

About the book: Raina Telgemeier and Gale Galligan team up to adapt and illustrate this super special graphic novel. Kristy, Claudia, Mary Anne, Stacey, Dawn, Mallory, and Jessi embark on the ultimate summer vacation: a plane ride to Florida, a cruise to the Bahamas on an extravagant ship, and three days at a huge amusement park. The Baby-Sitters Club has a million adventures — and still finds time for baby-sitting.
