About this listen
Three decades after The Baby-Sitters Club first rocked our world—like scoring your own phone line, in your room!—the beloved franchise is back to binge (and share) like never before!
In the most exciting news since we first learned of Kristy Thomas’s great idea to start the Baby-Sitters Club, the book series is now available only from Audible as an audio experience with special guest narrator Elle Fanning, the multi-talented actress and fan of BSC.
With endearing characters and enduring storylines filled with lessons of self-discovery, the beauty of true friendship, and the power of youth-led entrepreneurship itself, the BSC has never felt more now. So, whether you’re joining the club for the first time, or the first time in quite a while, spend time with stories that transcend the ages. Gather up the kids—not to mention those nieces, nephews, and neighbors alike—for all the twists, turns, hilarity, and burns of tween life in Stoneybrook, Connecticut!
It all began with a great idea ... and the inspiring original story of The Baby-Sitters Club is back! Kristy Thomas's brilliant business plan gets off to a great start with the help of Claudia Kishi (vice-president), Mary Anne Spier (secretary), and Stacey McGill (treasurer).

I like turtles 🐢
But they don’t like me and they are very annoying and they don’t want me in their house because I have a dog so they are very rude and they don’t want me out and I have a pet that they are not going anywhere so I’m not sure 🤔

Elle Fanning is amazing!!!
I looooved this audiobook!! Elle Fanning has a great book, and she’s good with tone/intonations/etc. She’s a good storyteller, and listening to her reading this book feels as if Kristy was really there telling you her stories directly. The emotions are not overly exaggerated like some other audiobook I’ve heard!
