When they first asked for story ideas, I was so excited that I came up with two. They became <em>The Worst Gymnast</em> and <em>Sister Spirit</em>. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 110%;">A lot of my own life has gone into the stories &ndash;&nbsp;we used to have&nbsp;a hiding space in the wardrobe between my room and my sister's, just as there is in Sister Spirit. Unfortunately my sister knew all about it, so I couldn't spy on her the way Cassie spies on her sister. It was great for hide and seek, though. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 110%;"><em>Dancing Queen</em> was part of the first relaunch with a new cover design (to the left). <em>Sister Spirit</em> is the latest release, with <em>Sink or Swim</em> due out in March 2012. </span></p>
