Karen's Grandmothers is the tenth book of the Baby-Sitters Little Sister series.

Back Cover Summary[]

When Karen adopts a grandmother from Stoneybrook Manor, she has more grandmas than anyone she knows — five! Karen thinks that is very special.

But Karen's new grandmother is so different! Grandma B makes Karen listen to old music. And she teaches Karen funny dances, like the foxtrot.

Are five grandmothers too many for Karen?
