The fifth book in Jean Ure's Foster Family series. When Bella arrives to stay with the Fosters, Abi and Sam are determined to be nice to her. Bella's dad is very ill - it must be awful - poor Bella. But it's hard to be sympathetic when Bella is such a boaster. Her parents, her house - even her pedigree pets are better than Abi and Sam's. The girls are trying so hard to be tolerant, but sooner or later something's got to give.
