Yeah. I was thinking this about Ann M. Martin, but you said it at least as well as I would have, probably better. I remember reading her non-Babysitters stuff even pre-Corner (like Ten Kids No Pets, Me and Katie the Pest, Bummer Summer) but agreed it's really the reputation-tweaking stuff like Corner, The Doll People, and A Dog's Life that has potentially changed awards-committee perception of her overall achievement.
