(4) 1-3 Illustrated by Dean Griffiths. In an overly long text, Ben resents having to look after Allison after school, but when he helps her solve some of her problems, he discovers that having a little sister may not be so bad after all. Ally's difficulties in the midst of a snowball fight and her ballet-costume dilemma ring true. However, the illustrations of the characters are inconsistent in quality.
