Watching the new Baby-Sitters Club Netflix series, there's so much diversity of all kinds; this is fucking amazing! One of their charges is a little trans girl; Dawn's dad is gay; Dawn & Mary Anne are POC; Charlotte Johansson has lesbian moms (& is also a POC) . . .

Meanwhile, Momona Tamada who plays the character of Claudia Kishi in the Netflix show talked about how she used to read the books of The Baby-Sitters Club in childhood. Talking to Nerds and Beyond, Momona said that she read the books growing up and loved them. She added that it was the first time that she had seen Asian representation in a book, so to now be able to play Claudia Kishi on-screen is an honour. “Feels full circle!” she said.
