When Amy's mother finally gets a suitable job,  Amy Chin is thrilled.  But when Mrs. Chin starts coming home late with presents and elegant food, plus tales of her new client Stephanie Sinclair, Amy isn't so thrilled anymore.  Soon Amy has to skip her ballet lessons to baby-sit her brothers and sisters.  Soon Stephanie is coming to live with Amy, and taking her own bed.  It also looks like Amy's mom  is giving all her attention to Stephanie, and not to Amy.  Will Amy get back her mothers heart?

I recommend the book to people who like the author Laurence Yep, and books that deal with emotions.
