WORST THING ABOUT MY SISTER

Marty and her sister Melissa couldn't be more different. Marty loves her Converse trainers, playing football, hiding in her secret den and helping her dad with his DIY, but Melissa loves Justin Bieber and all things pink, girly and pretty. Despite their occasional scraps, mum tells them they must share a room with bunk beds. For Marty, losing her private sanctuary turns out to be the very worst thing about having a sister, but the girls soon discover that being too close for comfort can have unexpected consequences, and when an accident happens, they realise they are closer than they thought. When mum's new dressmaking business takes off, she needs a spare room for the house for her sewing which is why the girls must share. From the multi-million pound bestselling writer with the rare gift for writing lightly. Ages 9-11 years, 280pp in paperback illustrated by the wonderful Nick Sharratt. Fairly large print.
