(3) 4-6 Upbeat middle child Sophie, ten, has no interest in puberty or the teenage obsessions of older siblings Thad and Nora. But her fellow fourth graders accuse her of being immature. Meanwhile, her mother goes on a business trip, leaving Mr. Hartley with the bickering kids. The messages in this fourth book are somewhat overt but nevertheless useful, and Sophie remains an engaging character.
