I think one reason why they don't do this is that the covers date quickly. The stories, not so much.

Well, when the Babysitters Club got cover updates it also got story updates. Small things like videotapes getting changed to DVDs, references to 80s toys that the kids played in the original with were changed to contemporary toys. I'm not sure how it dealt with other things that would seem weird today, like Claudia having her own phone line being a big deal and the whole reason all the club meetings took place in her room.

nayrt


Sort of OT, but since you mentioned Claudia (my fave) and her phone line...

So I just got my own internet connection and I felt like I was finally living my BSC dreams because I too wanted my own phone line, although I was nowhere near as entrepreneurial as Kristy was. Except now, instead of a phone line, it's an internet connection.

I'm guessing an update to that would be either their own cell phone, or paying for their own phone plans. Or having a phone plan they all pitched in for -- for specifically BSC communications.

DA

All this talk of changes to the BSC reminds me-I don't know if you've seen it yet, but Netflix has a new TV series of the "Baby-Sitters Club" that's out now, and they do a great job of adapting it to modern times.

(The show as a whole is really cute in general, so if you haven't seen it yet, I'd recommend it :D.)

dunno if this would be a spoiler or not, but they set the current netflix adaptation in the modern era and i had been wondering about how they would deal with the phone, basically claudia's family still has the additional land line and they just buy an old 90s phone from etsy so they still have the old phone.
