AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'An amusing tale for young people in which Angelica Rio is given a worry doll and things start to seem clearer. Angelica is a worrier, who at the age of 13 is concerned about being too fat, concerned about her parents who are fighting, and her brother who is stealing, concerned about her friend, Bess, and the boy who has just moved in next door. All this worrying is ruining her life. She discovers that it is not always true that the worry dolls do the worrying for you while you get time to fix things up! ' (Publication summary)
