It is bedtime, and two siblings are talking. “I’m big”, says the brother. “I’m bigger”, his sister retorts. What starts off as a competition soon turns into empathy, and ultimately develops into a heartwarming expression of love.
Age Group: Preschool (3-5)
Competition and comparisons are an integral part of children’s development, playing a key role in the development of social skills and personal growth. Although the siblings in this book are competing with one another, when needed, they also support each other. This book invites us to identify with playful competitiveness that is founded on a secure, loving relationship.
“Be my friend, be my brother, reach out to me when I cry out”
