Description

A big sister relates some of her accomplishments, which her baby brother is far from able to do.

Quick Summary

The narrator boasts about everything she can do that her baby brother can't riding a bike, tying her shoes, saying the alphabet and the humor lands because it's the kind of bragging little kids love to do. The short, snappy sentences and bright, expressive pictures make it a good pick for early readers who are just starting to tackle an AR level of 2.8. Parents will appreciate that the tone stays affectionate, never mean, and the story ends with a sweet moment that reminds kids how quickly little brothers catch up. It's perfect for families with a new baby or for kids who just enjoy a good sibling-rivalry story, and it pairs nicely with other simple sibling books like "The New Baby" by Mercer Mayer.
