It wasn't so much after all.'Chrissie knows how to steal sweets from the shop without getting caught, the best hiding place for hide-and-seek, the perfect wall for handstands.Now she has a new secret.

She is always worried - about affording food and school shoes, about what the other mothers think of her.
