Synopsis
Patsy Small is the youngest in her family, and she doesn't like it one bit. Her older brothers and sister are always teasing her. Even when they come down with chicken pox, they don't appreciate everything she does for them.
Then, after they all get better, Patsy herself gets chicken pox. Her father brings home something just for her to play with, but the older kids try to ruin it for her — until Patsy plans a little revenge of her own. All ends happily, however, when the bigger Smalls repent.

About the Author
Beloved and award-winning author Jean Little has garnered numerous accolades for her work. Born in Taiwan to Canadian doctors who were serving as missionaries, she was legally blind from birth. Little obtained a B.A. in English Language & Literature from the University of Toronto. She went on to write 44 more works, including novels, picture books, poetry, short stories, and two autobiographical books. She has six honorary degrees and is a Member of the Order of Canada. Little lives in Guelph, Ontario, with her family.
From Kirkus Reviews
Though her older sister and brothers tease her relentlessly, Patsy Small is magnanimous: when they have chicken pox, she brings Jim drinks, loans Jane her favorite book, and gives Hugo a toy for his hamster. In return, Patsy gets some grudging approval; even so, when she falls ill, it's back to normal: the recovered sibs refuse loans, are too busy to play, and revert to their habitual insults. Still, when Dad provides the bored convalescent with some enticing art supplies, they're all eager to share. Patsy decrees otherwise; moreover, she constructs a toy village complete with a cemetery in which all three appear: ``Here lies Jane Small, A Mean Sister.'' A quick reformation ensues, and Patsy generously revises her tombstones. Though the sibs' concluding turnabout is easily won, the family dynamics (including Dad's kindlier teasing) are right on target. Wilson, who also illustrated Little's Jess Was the Brave One (1992), provides colorful realistic illustrations that are especially good at conveying the subtleties of the children's feelings. Another solidly entertaining family story from this fine Canadian author. (Picture book/Young reader. 4-8) -- Copyright ©1993, Kirkus Associates, LP. All rights reserved.
