I kept seeing this at bookstores but had somehow missed it in the review journals. So I ordered it for the library and promptly checked it out to myself. (Ha!) It took me ten minutes to read and I went through a whole range of emotions, from skeptical to completely won over, tears streaming down my face. It’s a sweet, funny, sentimental read about the evolution of sibling relationships. Would be a great gift for older siblings, where one has gone away to college recently for instance.

Big sibs and lttle sibs, especially when there's a sizable age gap, have a singular relationship, both with each other and with their parents.

What an awesomely short novel so different from anything I’ve read in a while. Told in letter format between a brother and a sister who was just born this story follows them through adolescence when the brother finally goes off to college. As someone who has a younger brother this one resonated with me. I think a lot of students will love this one because it’s short, but sweet!

Fantastic book, written in letters from a brother to his sister, over the course of ten years. Super sweet and poignant, hitting on a wide variety of complex emotions... all tied together with a careful, thoughtful simplicity. So much to soak in here. I absolutely loved it.

Very cute children's book that I happened to pick up at the library. It consists of short notes that a brother writes to his sister while growing up and has a very nice ending. The illustrator did a good job of drawing good pictures, while still making them look like a child had done it. It's a fun and heartwarming read if you're looking for something light to cleanse your reading palette.

So sweet! This is an adorable, super fast, modern epistolary story between a brother and his younger sister. Lovely and full of feels.

Very quick read and SOOOOO adorable. I got a tad misty eyed. Consists of letters from an aging older brother to his baby sister that follows the evolution of their relationship.
