What this book is about

The seventh Baby-Sitters Club novel gives Claudia Kishi the story she deserves — her complicated relationship with her high-achieving sister Janine, and the family crisis that forces them to work together and understand each other. Martin's ability to write about family dynamics with compassion and without sentimentality is at its best here.
