What do you do when you have an incredibly annoying little sister?
Write her letters telling her so, of course! From New York Times
bestselling author Alison McGhee comes a wickedly funny, illustrated,
heartwarming, and searingly honest collection of letters from an older
brother to his little sister.
Whininess, annoyingness, afraid of the darkness, refusal to eat lima
beans, and pulling brother's hair. These are the criteria on which
little sisters are graded. Inspired by the notes Alison McGhee's own
kids would write each other, this heavily illustrated collection of
letters and messages from an older brother to his little sister reveal
the special love--or, at the very least, tolerance--siblings have for
each other.
