He is enthusiastic about just how loving and special she is, and delights in telling us about all the fun things they do together.

Teachers and librarians will appreciate this book for its sincere and convincing treatment of children with special needs, while parents will use this book to encourage sibling friendship and to read with children who are beginning to ask why a particular child they know is "different."
