There is a phantom phone caller burglar in nearby cities. The babysitters are freaked out. They are also obsessed with boys and an upcoming dance. Things get even scarier when somebody in town is robbed. The police think this may be a copycat, but girls are still scared. Things come to a head during one babysitting experience when they get strange phone calls, and then hear sounds from outside. The babysitter calls the police and they find the perpetrator. It is the "annoying boy" who was trying to get the girl's attention to ask her to the dance. She is happy to be liked, even though she has been so annoyed by the boy. Another girl finally hears a call from the boy she likes. He had been afraid and hanging up many times. They are happy and going to the dance. The criminal is later arrested - but it appears the one in town was a copycat. It is a lighthearted story of girls starting to like boys and having the relationships be up near the top of their concerns, even as other real-world events are occuring.
