Customer Reviews

Sibling rivalry at its best.

I have read a number of books in the series, and would have to say thiat this was one of my favourites. Having an overly competitive elder brother myself, I can understand how Jo felt. It describes a typical brother/sister relationship really well. Like the other books in the series, the story is told sinply, with humour, and is short enough to be read in half an hour. It's also nice to hear a story from Jo's point of view, as she has become more of a main character by this stage.
