Genre: Personal Narrative, Picturebook

Grade Level: K-2

Readers who will like this book: Children with sibling rivalry

Response/Rating: I enjoyed this book. I think many children can relate to arguing with siblings (cousins or other students). I personally don't care for the "line" in the illustrations but I think the bright colors are attractive. 3

Classroom Question: Do you have a brother or sister? Do you compete with them?
