The Baby-Sitters Club Portrait Books: Mary Anne's Book
Like all the other BSC members, Mary Anne has to write a biography for class. She recalls her first memory and how it was about her dad coming home from work one day. She also talks about going to nursery school and how Richard sat with her all morning. When he left, she started crying until Kristy came over and made her sit with her and Claudia. I'm assuming that started their whole friendship. Mary Anne then remembers first grade and how they did a tea party for Mother's Day. Their teacher told them that if they didn't have a mother, they could bring someone else. When Mary Anne announces that she'll bring her dad, a bunch of kids laugh at her. Kristy even threatens to punch Alan. Since she already told her dad, she worried about what to do. Eventually though, she decided that he would forget about it and invited Mimi instead. Too bad that Richard really did remember. He shows up just after Mimi, and poor Mary Anne has to tell her teacher what happened
