Résumé : Emma is Jess's little sister ... and her dilemma. How can one small girl be sweet,
funny, imaginative, playful, and affectionate as well as a clinging vine, brat, tattletale,
and nuisance-all at the same time? Why is Jess supposed to be a good big sister while
Emma doesn't have to be a good little sister? The highlights and low points of this
sibling relationship are insightfully evoked in short and simple poems, some funny,
some touching, and all resonant with emotional truth. Every child with a younger sibling
will recognize Jess's dilemma and the combination of ambivalence and deep loyalty
that is built into the sibling relationship. Nancy Carpenter's graceful illustrations
perceptively complement Kristine O'Connell George's agile poems. [source Electre]
