In an exciting collaboration between Raymond Antrobus and Ken
Wilson-Max, comes a truly authentic and stunningly evocative
picture book on brother-sister dynamics and how creativity and
storytelling can help resolve conflict and enable better
understanding. My sister and me fight! Push Pull Hurt Hide. We
would not use our words. This little boy does not get on with his
sister. They misunderstand each other, struggle to communicate, and
they fight. Afterwards, there’s a lot of hurt, heavy feelings and
loneliness. In order to escape their constant rowing and clear his
head, the boy often retreats to his bedroom when he writes his
stories. He writes stories about terrible horses - trampling and
galloping - and he, a lone pony, who cannot compete and cannot
speak. But what happens when his sister finds his book? Could it be
a way for them to finally understand each other? Filled with
empathy and poignance, Terrible Horses is a beautiful and powerful
story of managing anger, reflection and learning to see someone
else's perspective.

These heartwarming stories remind us how satisfying it is to grow
up surrounded by love. "I Can Do It Too!" affirms a little girl's
growing independence as she, too, can begin to do all the things
she sees her parents, relatives and neighbors do: pouring juice at
breakfast, strumming a guitar, and even riding a bike! In "You Can
Do It Too!" she passes newly won skills and abilities to a younger
brother, teaching him everything she thinks he needs to know. The
simple cadence of text and direct-to-the-heart art result in two
books as warm and generous as their message, providing reading
pleasure for toddlers, older siblings, and the grown-ups who love
them.
