Review

Yes sisters do come in two (or more) sizes; this older sister shares her experiences with readers. Comical and uncomfortable situations arise which the big sister usually handles in a gentle and patient manner. There are two occasions when big sis manages to manipulate little sis, taking advantage of her advanced years.

The art is sparse line drawings that do the job complimenting the story line. Although the colors are bright there is an abundance of white space. Cute, pink, and rather sweet this is a book for families with girls. Make this title available to any 4 – 7 year old girl who is about to become a big sister. Public libraries always have a need for books that deal with sibling relationships.

Overall Book Score: good
