Dawn and the School Spirit War (Baby-Sitters Club) Review
First let me start off with some background. I am a junior now. Yes, I still read the BSC books every now and then. They're not extraordinary or anything; they're just nice and easy after all the classic, challenging reads in English class. This book, however, is NOT my one of my favorite BSC books. It's not that it's boring (it's actually kind of exciting), it's just that it's stupid.Like I said, I am a junior, and all throughout my life my schools have Red Ribbon week and they have theme days like Pajama Day. In elementary school it was more common to go with the theme, but you didn't really get teased or anything. Now in high school it's actually kind of rare to see someone in P.J.s or whatever. And nobody gets teased or blamed for anything. That's why this book is retarded. I don't want to write a 600-page novel, so I'll list all the reasons why this book is SO unrealsitic and stupid:
1. Participation in those types of theme days is voluntary, not mandatory. Sure, teachers enchoprage it, but it's not a big deal. Man making them wear those stupid things isn't America or Democracy! It's like totalitarianism (okay maybe that's going a bit overboard but if you look at it it is similar)!
2. Real adults are not that stupid. At the game or whatever, there was fighting between parents and some got arrested. If that's what spirit causes, then leave me out!
3.Why in the heck would the newspaper lady appear at the school and single out poor Dawn and make her look like a grouchy antisocialist? In real life, she would have gotten fired for that or at least condemned!
4. Why would Dawn's and Mary Anne's fi=riends turn against them just beacause they don't wear their PJs to school? Makes you think, Are they really their friends?
5. If a school really made kids wear so-called "School spirit" clothes, they might get in trouble. Especially since the Month only created division.
This is a little random but honestly WHAT was Martin trying to do with this book? Say, "If you make people do things they will turn against you?" If so, she should have done it more realistically, like maybe have the principal create unfair rules. (But not TOO stupid like evryone must wear an orange tie every Thursday)
I could go on but let me say the good parts to be fair: Dawn and Mary Anne. They ook a stand against the stupid School Spirit Month that was dividing the school. And I liked the way they compromised (Oh my gosh it was so ridiculously obvious), that School Spirit would still be there but it would be completely voluntary. Whew! It's one of those 'duh' ideas.
In conclusion, don't read this book unless you want to see that there are SOME reasonable people out there. Maybe check it out from the library first.
