It's not Kitty's fault when she's late for school and Dad crashed into the gatepost! It's not Kitty's fault that baby Tom crawls into trouble or that she's getting too old to sit on Dad's knee! And it's certainly not Kitty's fault that her boring cousin Melissa can't make friends at school! But for some reason Kitty feels that it is.

The only thing Kitty's friends want to do is to watch TV. Dad's busy and Mum has a new baby. What can Kitty do to stop everyone being so boring? Mooney takes this common childhood complaint and creates a touching, warm and insightful story from it.

Kitty always seems brave and tough, but really she gets scared like everyone else. All sorts of things are frightening for her and her friends from monsters and ghosts to the audience at the school play. And one day Kitty finds out that even her older brother gets scared too and she can help!

Do you ever say, 'so what!'? Sometimes Kitty doesn't seem to care about anything. Sometimes she is just pretending she doesn't care. Is she bothered about her homework, her baby brother, or her teddy, Mr. Tubs? What do you think? Kitty doesn't like a fuss, but the truth is, she does care about a lot of things and making her friends happy is just one of them.

Why don't holidays last forever? When one day Kitty's mother echoes Kitty's cry of "It's not fair" Kitty thinks up a brilliant idea...
