Sisters are different in so many ways: one is big, one is little; one rises early, one sleeps late. But they're alike in many more, from enjoying a dress-up tea party to delighting in special experiences, like meeting a horse. And there is one heartfelt way in which they are most alike — they love each other so very much.
David McPhail's modern classic celebration of the trials and joys of sisterhood has been a favorite with sisters of all ages for almost twenty years, and is sure to be a favorite for new generations of sisters to read... together.
This title is now also available in a bilingual Spanish / English edition, Hermanas / Sisters.
"The essence is in the body language, captured by McPhail's delicate cross-hatching, and each page is an idyllic scenario of the girls playing, talking, disagreeing, competing--but always close and loving. The older girl is protective; the little one is full of mischief. But whether they're baking cookies, dressing up in old-fashioned bonnets, or petting a horse, they love each other." -- Booklist
