Maybe one day our little narrator will be able to give up her tricycle and finger knots and falling down, and become just like her fabulous older sister, who is so big and tall and wonderful, she may as well be a mountain top dusted in snow.
But wait - there is something perhaps our little girl might be better at than her big sister... could it be she is one of the best huggers in the whole world?
This simple story is all about the awe younger children hold for older siblings, and how special the process of growing up really is.
Illustrations by Gaye Chapman are whimsically beautiful, using lush vintage-inspired colour and divine patterns on background pages.
A visual delight and heartfelt message that's perfect for sisters.
