      About This Book

      It's going to take more than two sitters to take care of these kids!

      It's the best of times—Saturday morning, and Wishbone is ready to play! It's the worst of times—David Barnes decides to babysit his sister and her friend at the Talbots'! Wishbone makes an escape from his noisy home. He is reminded of the classic novel A Tale of Two Cities. He imagines himself as Charles Darnay, a wealthy Frenchman who must flee his homeland when war breaks out. A friend in France faces trouble. Darnay returns home, but an angry mob is out to get his hide!
