When the new neighbour turns up to babysit, Jake's parents depart in a rush, happily unaware that the babysitter has huge hairy hands, enormous feet and habits even worse than those of their terrible son. The author also wrote "The Day Jake Vacuumed".
Meet the notorious Jake. He's difficult. He's a problem. But children and adults alike will love him! In Jake and his Cousin Sidney, Jake has to look after his baby cousin, and if there's one thing he doesn't like, it's babies! Big trouble is on the way! In The Day Jake Vacuumed Jake's parents find out that asking him to help with the housework probably wasn't such a good idea, and in Jake and the Babysitter no one who knows Jake will babysit for him. But tonight his parents have found him a new babysitter - and he's worse than Jake!
