Rosemary Goode is overweight. She can't seem to keep her weight under control. It seems like food calls for her and she falls for it. Her mother and aunt beg her to lose weight, yet she ignores them. Will she resist the temptation for sweets or lose the weight she has been carrying around? Cute and sweet for all girls; large or small. It is a strong story revealing how a girl struggles to lose weight for herself. Around ten to fifteen swear words.
