As an experienced babysitter, Janey Webster can handle just about any situation, or so she claims. In this collection of sixteen humorous stories, Janey has to prove she’s up to any challenge, including sitting for a boy known as Timmy the Terrible, the Mayor’s children, a family of five, a crabby Grandma, and a cub scout troop. At the end, test your own skills by taking Janey’s Babysitter’s Test and see if you deserve the rank of E.B. (Experienced Babysitter).

While school is out for the summer, Jason opens a pet-sitting service as a way to earn spending money. More importantly, he’s determined to prove that he’s not the failure his big brother thinks he is. Armed with his motto, “Think positive!” and the help of his best buddy Tom, Jason takes on some very strange clients, including a snake named Sylvester, a parrot named Popeye, a Great Dane that’s bigger than Jason, and a house full of cats. But his business seems doomed to fail when disaster strikes some of the animals in his care. Will thinking positive save him, or will big brother Greg be right about him after all?
