Sisters/Hermanas

Sisters can be different in so many ways, but there is one heartfelt way in which they are most alike—they love each other so very much.

David McPhail's celebration of the joys—and trials—of sisterhood has been a favorite with sisters of all ages for almost twenty years. McPhail observes every lively contradiction between the pair, contrasting one girl's barefoot adventures with her sister's mismatched socks and baseball games.

The narrative embraces these small domestic squabbles alongside shared delights, following the duo from noisy arguments at the piano to quiet reconciliation over cups of tea.

The two sisters find common ground in simple pleasures, whether racing into leaf piles or drawing pictures.
