Sweet Valley Kids #15: Fearless Elizabeth

Dec 27, 2009 01:20

I can't find an image of it but Elizabeth is on the cover of this book with a soccer/football ball. I'd like to point out how many sports Elizabeth and Jessica seem to play for one book and then never do again. There was a softball team in SVT and cross country running in SVJK and volleyball in Team Sweet Valley. I mean, if Liz was a good soccer ( Read more... )

I can even clearly picture Eva's dad's flattop in my mind! Further proof that SV has been burned into my subconscious permanently.
I'm afraid it's going to be in my brain forever now.

Actually it seems as if in all the different series (SVH, SVT, SVK) he is portrayed as either sweet and sensitive or an insensitive misogynist pig, depending on the plot of the book.
Todd really doesn't. He's like a stand-in for whatever stereotype is needed. He's also from SV and sometimes he's new. He's a cipher, that Todd.

God. Elizabeth can do ANYTHING. Someone take her through the mary sue litmus test. She'd explode it.

I think I found Eva's English cousin

Elizabeth IS the Mary Sue litmus test.

I can't remember this little guy's name, but he has his own comic strip in the Beano, right?

kerssido December 28 2009, 20:22:24 UTC

It's Ball Boy. He's from the Beano, although I have no idea if he's still in it. Crazy name they gave him.
