Karen's Newspaper

I got this book from the library last year, and I don't remember it very good. Karen, and her friends Hannie and Nancy start a newspaper, but they embaress some of the other people that live close to them when they write about them in their newspaper, so they get in trouble and have to stop making the paper. All of the Baby Sitters Little Sister books are good.

"Karen's got the scoop...on the whole neighborhood!"

After seven-year-old Karen Brewer meets a news reporter for 'The Stoneybrook News,' she decides to start a kids' newspaper with two of her friends, Nancy Dawes and Hannie Papadakis, called 'The 3M (Three Musketeers) Gazette.' Instead of boring news that appears in the adult's newspaper, their first issue includes things that happen in their neighborhood, like Karen's stepbrother buying his girlfriend an inexpensive bracelet, Hannie's father going on a diet to lose his "spare tire," and a neighbor who loses his job. Needless to say, their first issue doesn't go over well. So they decide on a new approach, by learning from grocery store tabloids--only nobody takes it seriously. What will they think of next to put in their newspaper?The ending to "Karen's Newspaper" is great and gives a good message: to respect other people's privacy. The entire book is full of creative ideas for young kids who are interested in journalism.

Making a newspaper

I think the books are awsome and cool. Way to go Ann M. Martin
