Where have you been all my life?
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
I was browsing in a bookstore connected with an English language school when I saw this title. For years I'd been hoping to find even one book which, oh please dear God just this once, end with something other than the same old, same old, tired old lecture that put-upon older siblings have no option but to eternally suck it up and keep swallowing their mounting exasperation. More out of habit than hope I picked the book up and read it... and I bought it on the spot. I would have given anything for a book like this when I was younger! The drawing's not the greatest and the action is sometimes unclear, but there is nothing unclear about the initially welcoming older sibling's increasing frustration. For firstborns, I cannot recommend this book highly enough. Only too many books out there already expressly FORBID them to open their mouths to stand up for themselves whenever the source of their irritation, exasperation, (and yes, I'm here to tell you, sometimes deliberate torture) just so happens to be YOUNGER!
Children with Younger Siblings Will Love This!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This book is about a little boy who is trying to teach his younger sister how to play hide-and-go-seek without much success. It is written in short sentences and easy vocabulary, making it ideal for the youngest of readers. Any child with younger siblings will identify with this little guy and his exasperation at having to play with his little sister!
