Description
Just one last summer living with the aunts - a summer when Sarah makes an unlikely friend, learns a thing or two about the amazing Piriel Starr, and finally breaks the habit of a lifetime.
Things to look forward to-
1. When I move to the city I'll be far too busy to stay with the aunts very often. Specially at weekends.
2. Piriel plans to do a lot of entertaining in that apartment. She'll need me around to help with that.
3. I'll be doing some entertaining of my own, because everyone at school will realise just how exciting my new lifestyle is. Things will be different then, because I'll be different. Somehow brighter and more interesting . . .
Sarah Radcliffe could easily be a contender for the least-popular-girl-in-the-school award. But all that's about to change when the glamorous Piriel Starr becomes her stepmother. Suddenly Sarah will have loads of friends who'll be dying to see her fabulous city apartment.
Just one last summer living with the aunts - a summer when Sarah makes an unlikely friend, learns a thing or two about the amazing Piriel Starr, and finally breaks the habit of a lifetime.
