Big Sister, Little Sister

We have a 2.5 year old and a 6 month old who is already crawling and taking big sisters toys. I thank this book for really helping to create a positive view of the baby in her big sister's eyes. And it helps the toddler to create a positive view of herself as the big sister, too. The words are exactly right, the illustrations are wonderful, the theme is light-hearted and fun but still resonates, and the color scheme is really appealing. It is my first choice, and my daughter's first choice, for storytime every day since we got it a month ago. How often does that happen? I hope the author (and illustrator) get moving on some new books!

My girls love to argue at times. Maybe it's the age gap - maybe its just what girls do. So I bought this book to read to them at bedtime. The illustrations were amazing and the story line was precious! We read it and pointed out the differences in what the big and little sister did - and the similarities of how my girls could relate. It was hilarious. We laughed and laughed and ofcourse read it again!The story on the back cover about the author was so neat! We plan to visit her website soon!You can't go wrong with this book.

This book is perfect for sisters!!!!

A friend of ours gave us this after we had our second daughter. Not only is it beautifully illustrated but it captures the dynamics of little and big sister relationships perfectly. I still enjoy reading this and buy it for tiny sisters whenever the chance arises. A special book to be kept through adulthood!

Book is great but I do change a lot of the words, it is their favorite book right now they want it every night because of course one of my children is the big sister and the other is the little sister, but it is VERY stereo typical. For instance on one of the pages it says, "big sister gets new clothes, little sister gets her old clothes". Most of the book is like this, I just change the words to "the little sister gets new clothes and her big sisters old clothes! Another line states that Big sister is neat, and little sister is not neat, again I do not want to speak those kind of words over my kids defining that one is neat and the other not, in truth the are both not very neat but getting better as they get older. i would recommend buying but feel free to change up the words when you need to like I do!

I have several of LeUyen's books and they are ALL so well - done and heartfelt. She really tugs at your heart strings with her illustrations and well-expressed sentiments. Really emphasizes how important it is to SAY those things that your heart is feeling toward your friends and family members. Thanks for a precious book.

gift for sister and she loved it

This is from the little sis' point of view, though I bought it for a big sis. It's so so cute & we are huge fans of all LeUyen Pham's work.

A lovely book if you have two girls. They will relate to the things that big sister and little sister get up to. I'm about to buy a second copy for another pair of big and little sisters. Charming illustrations too.

A good find! A nice story to share with sisters, big and small! My girls really love to read this.
