Book of Big Brothers by Luc Melanson, Cary Fagan

kristenremenar's review against another edition

3.0

For grades 2 and up. The youngest of three brothers tells stories of their childhood, the good times when his big brothers stuck up for him, the not-so-good times when they set the tree aflame with firecrackers, etc. Nice to pair with "Knucklehead" by Jon Sciesczka. Good mentor-text for writing class.

4.0

A trio of bike-riding Canadian boys engage in pranks, tricks, teasing, adventure, grand schemes, and admirably compassionate moments. I know three brothers who live on a farm in Virginia - the youngest is known only as Monkey - who are these boys incarnate. Funny, warm, realistic, and all about making plans and looking out for each other.
