In the story clean sweep by joan bauer CLARIFY why does katie resent her brother? #cleansweep #katie

Katie lists a host of reason she resents her brother. Her list begins with "he’s allergic to dust," which she clearly states is "bad news when the family business is dedicated to eliminating it." She also complains that, unlike her, "he’s a devoted underachiever." She also goes on to say that he's a well versed hypochondriac when it's time for him to work. She says that "He gets the perfect look of abject pain over his face," and that "his face gets a little pale (I don’t know how he does this)". At this point he'll attempt to stand, but in making himself look so pathetic she feels so bad and insensitive that she just does the work herself!
