Description

Freddie has had many many babysitters over the years. And he's never liked a single one. So when a new one shows up, he's sure he's in for a boring night. Yet the babysitter seems nervous. Their table manners are appalling. And dinner is garbage. . . literally. But after Freddie decides to team up with the babysitter to turn the evening around, what started out as boring becomes a night he won't forget. Humorous and heartfelt, this picture book full of delightful art is about letting new people (or raccoons) in!

Author Bio

Elayne Crain is a proud writer of childish (and often laughable) things. When Elayne is not reading or writing, she loves walks in the woods with her sons and partner, nature photography, and lively karaoke. Her debut picture book, There's Something Odd About the Babysitter (illustrated by John Ledda), publishes in 2025. Learn more at elaynecrain.com. John Ledda considered many careers-from architect to dolphin trainer-before returning to the one thing he had always loved: Art. With a BA in Studio Art and an MFA in Illustration, John is now an illustrator, graphic designer, and writer-in-training. He creates exciting, whimsical worlds full of expressive characters and documents moments-big and small-that kids experience as they learn and grow.
