Description:

Twelve-year-old Tahnee has had enough. Her mother is a leading architect going for a big competition, and she's always working. She doesn't seem to care about Tahnee at all, and only a little bit about her younger daughter, who preoccupies the babysitter's attention. Tahnee's best friend Ellen has a major problem with both her parents - they think she's going to be the world's greatest musician and doesn't have time for things like watching her favourite football team. Both girls need to sort out their parents. A forbidden trip to see Essendon play at Geelong and a school event, 'the Night of the Notables', in which the students have to dress up as their heroes, brings many issues to a head, and to a happy resolution, for both girls.
