My Rotten Redheaded Older Brother

There's nothing worse than a rotten redheaded older brother who can do everything you can do better! Patricia's brother, Richard, can do everything better and faster than she can. When little Patricia wishes on a shooting star that she could do something to show him up, she finds out just what wishes--and redheaded older brothers--can really do. A lively, warmhearted tale of comic one-upmanship. Full color.
