Summary
On the face of it, Leslie is a healthy, well-adjusted 14-year-old girl. She should be happy, yet she's not. If only she were thinner. But 'thinking thin' becomes a dangerous obsession and Leslie's weight drops to five stone, threatening to destroy her and the whole fabric of her family life.
