Illustrated by
Jennifer Kalis.
In her eighteenth outing, ten-year-old Mallory's curiosity gets the best of her as she wonders what her older brother and his girlfriend are up to--and why they never want Mallory around; her snooping soon gets her into trouble. Well-presented lessons about privacy, growing up, and feeling excluded are leavened by the genial tone and illustrations.
