Charise is lively and inventive, but when a playful moment turns into a broken tooth for her brother Daniel, she faces a crisis. Can she mend their relationship and redefine what it means to be a good sister? As she navigates guilt and responsibility, Charise must confront the complexities of sibling love and forgiveness. Will she find a way to make things right, or will her actions forever change their bond? Dive into this heartfelt journey of self-discovery and family ties.

From the publisher

Meet Charise. She’s energetic, helpful, a model pet owner and full of inventions. But she’s also a bad sister. When she goes too far and breaks little brother Daniel’s tooth, can she redeem herself? Is an accident really an accident if you could have stopped it? But most importantly… What does it mean to be a good sister?
