Illustrated by
Tim Warnes.
Mouse Monty dislikes how his younger sister Milli takes over his playtime. Tensions flare when Milli's ineffectual "help" ruins Monty's new magic act, so the magician-in-training tries to make her disappear--for good. The ending is a little too cutesy, but it's a mostly realistic tale of sibling squabbles; Warnes's illustrations contribute additional wit and humor to the package.
