though unrealistic a nice read
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
it was nice getting a glimpse of claudia's detective and teaching skills and a sense of her fashion taste and how cool she is. This girl needed to realize that she was the bomb and the most exciting one in the family! And grades are nothing, there is more to life than school. You know how many things are not taught in school?
Cool!

In this BSC book, Claudia can hardly find ANY baby photos of herself, only Janine the Genius, so she assumes that she was adopted like Emily Michelle, Kristy's adopted sister from Vietnam. In the book, she tutors Emily, teaching her how to match and teaching her her colors. You see, Emily is 21/2, and she heard nothing but Vietnamese for two years. The pediatrician says she is "language-delayed," which means she isn't getting far on her English. In the end, Mrs. Kishi said that most people are awed with their first baby, this human they've created. She said they had more photos of Janine because she was their first child, but Mimi, who if you are a huge fan of the books like I am, you probably know she died in book #26, looked exactly like Claudia back when she was 12. You have to read this book!
The book was lots decent

This is a good book. Claudia's genius sister, Janine has one yet another award and Claudia feels left out. She decides to cheer herself up by looking at old photos of her sister and her when they were young. Claudia finds tons of pictures of Janine when she was young, but almost none of her baby pictures, just some of Janine and her when she was a toddler. She tries to find more, and comes across a locked cashbox. Claudia thinks that she's been adopted, and that her papers are in there. Also, there are no baby announcements for her in the paper. To add to that, she doesn't even look like anyone in her family. Is Claudia really adopted?
