everyone grows at different times. your sister is just fine (; ]
she's totally okay. she's on the thin side of average, but that's generally what most people WANT. congratulate her on trying to gain wait, that's a really healthy way to look at it! she's definitaly not un-healthily underweight, but it's refreshing to see that some girls out there aren't starving themselves!
hope i helped,

When I was 11, I was 86 Ibs and 4'10 (I'm a female); The doctor told me I was just fine. Your sister is fine. ]
EHMAGAWD! Your sister and I have that in common, but I`m a little taller than her!
Yes, she is a TAD underweight BUT she shouldn`t be TOO worried UNLESS she has already gotten her period- in which case that isn`t healthy. Just make sure she eats a sufficient amount of foods. Also, take a look at you and your family. Are they thin like that too? If they/you are, then don`t worry, it`s just a genetal thing.

no your sister isnt underweight or atleast i dont think so. you see my family is skinny and my sister is 5ft and 12 also but she is 65 pounds so i dont think your sister is underweight ]
She is underweight. According to ,
www.am-i-fat.com
try and get her eating more, not a bunch of junk cause then she'll just be gaining fat. But once she goes threw puberty she'll grow alot more. ]
