Sister of the Quints

When Natalie Wentworth's stepmother became pregnant, no one imagined there might be FIVE babies! Yet now, a year later, the household is chaos as the quintuplets become more active, tearing around the house, scaring away babysitters and causing the family financial worries. It's hard enough being thirteen, but Natalie's getting sick of being a constant second place to her father's *new* children. She sees a clear solution -- moving to Colorado to live with her mother. After all, Natalie's mother has always wanted her, and it'd be wonderful, just the two of them in a peaceful apartment. Yet despite her daily irritation, Natalie knows she loves her brothers and sisters, as well as the life she's built with her father and stepmother. How can she just leave the quints? Not only that, but there's her friends at school, as well as a new crush, Noel... Pevsner does an excellent job, interspersing typical adolescent interests and worries with the unique situation of being "sister of the quints."
