Lauren Child's spunky character returns and -- as if things could get
any livelier in Clarice Bean's household --Uncle Ted is babysitting!
**
**Who can Mom and Dad get to babysit the feisty Clarice, her pesky
brother Minal Cricket, and the school's guinea pig, Albert, who's
visiting for spring break? (Not to mention teenage brother Kurt, who
abhors daylight; big sis Marcie, who chats on the phone all day; and
Grandad, who tends to wander off.) Only Uncle Ted, firefighter and movie
addict, can be persuaded. Will he survive the week?
