Gabby Duran and the Unsittables

Gabby Duran and the Unsittables written by Daryle Conners and Elise Allen is a fantasy science fiction book that has elements of excitement, mystery, suspense, and humor. The title character, Gabby, is considered one of the best babysitters because of her patience and understanding towards her charges, especially the unusual children. She was recruited to babysit alien children and the story took off when she was assigned to babysit Wutt and at the same time attempting to win the French horn solo with school orchestra. The best scene in the book took place when Gabby first Wutt; it dialogue between Gabby and Ms. Edwina was very funny. The difficulties and intrigues along the way makes the story a good read. I would recommend this book to those who enjoy reading adventure stories involving fascinating characters. - Isabella
