{"product_id":"big-little-mother-9780873519113","title":"Big Little Mother","description":"A younger brother has little choice but to look up to his older sister. She's taller than he is, for one thing. She has many developing talents, ranging from karate to violin. And she knows so many things: How to make the living room into an adventure land. How to dance. How to grow gumdrops. Well, maybe her understanding of the world isn't perfect, but she's pretty impressive, leading Little Brother to call her \"Me one\" and himself \"Me, too.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBig Sister also loves to share her knowledge, particularly with her best friend, Kittywumpus, the family cat. However, after a possibly too vigorous \"makeover,\" Kittywumpus runs away for a much-needed break, leaving Little Brother as the new target for Big Sister's ministrations. And while it's fun at first, the dressing up and the tea parties and the cream cheese on the piano start to make Little Brother think that the cat might have had the right idea.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBut then, an impromptu performance in his sister's tap dancing class earns kudos for both siblings, giving them each a new respect for each other that continues even after Kittywumpus returns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePraise for Big Little Brother\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Big Little Brother is an exceptionally funny and bittersweet book that any reader, young or old, who has been an older sibling will warm to.\" --New York Times\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kevin Kling\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Borealis Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 32\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.03lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.29h x 10.36w x 0.40d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780873519113\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 10\/15\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2014 pg. 34 - Below Average, With Minor Flaw\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMonroe, Chris:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Painter and cartoonist Chris Monroedraws the weekly comic strip Violet Daysand is the author and illustrator of Monkey with a Tool Belt and Sneaky Sheep, among other books for children.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Borealis Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":40938971988083,"sku":"9.78087E+12","price":17.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_12cac42b-f3f9-4a89-a725-9df90dfec4d3.jpg?v=1693404136","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/en-de\/products\/big-little-mother-9780873519113","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
