ONE: Sheep Are In (Kristy's Great Idea)

Danii and Joy grew up loving the Baby-Sitters Club series by Ann M. Martin. Now, as queer, literature-loving twenty-somethings and once college roommates they're diving into the books, tv shows, and films to see why they meant so much to them and so many other young girls. 

Exploring the Baby-Sitters Club universe through a critical gender/race/sexuality/class/etc analysis may seem like an unusual move...but they're hoping, like Kristy Thomas, that this was a Great Idea.
