Big Sister, Little Sister by LeUyen Pham

I fell in love with Big Sister, Little Sister because I am a big sister and I have a little sister. This book captures so much of what that experience is like. 

Pham goes between their two perspectives both in simple statements and amazing pictures.

According to the big sister, she is always right and always looks out for her little sister.  However, according to the little sister, she is always right and she doesn't need looking after. It was fun to hear my boys (big brother, little brother) identify with these girls in their sibling roles.

Pham's style of illustrating gives life to all of the facial expressions and body language that accompany interactions between sisters. Or siblings, period.

If you are a sister or have daughters or know what it means to have/be a sibling, this book is a gem.
