Jessi's Secret Language
Description
Feeling isolated as the only African American in her sixth grade class, Jessi gains a sense of belonging by participating in the Baby-sitters Club, learning sign language in order to communicate with a deaf child, and dancing in a ballet. America's favorite series returns with a new look and a Netflix TV show. Jessi knows a secret language! She learned it from Matt Braddock, the BSC's newest charge. Matt's been deaf since birth, and he uses sign language to speak. Since Jessi is Matt's baby-sitter, she's been using sign language, too. Soon all the kids in Stoneybrook want to learn to sign, which keeps the Baby-sitters busy. Jessi's the busiest of all: she's working on another secret just for Matt. Will she be able to keep the secret and pull off her special event?
