Publisher Description
In The Twins' Little Sister by award-winning picture book author Hyewon Yum, being twins means having two of almost everything: two twin beds, two polka-dot dresses, two dolls. But these two little girls have only one mom. This is a big problem. Soon there will be an even bigger problem: Mom is having a baby, and the twins will have a little sister. But Mom has only two arms. Who's going to hold the baby's hand? Luckily, once the baby arrives, the twins discover the pleasures of being big sisters. They also learn that there is more than enough love to go around. A Frances Foster Book
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Having solved their blanket-sharing dilemma in The Twins' Blanket, the twins at the center of this companion book are jostling for their mother's time and attention. Those resources are in even shorter supply after a baby sister enters the picture. Yum packs a novel's worth of emotion into her pages, from the twins' unvarnished initial assessment of their sibling ("The baby is red and ugly. She looks like the bread in a paper bag") to the hard-to-shake disappointments and jealousies that eventually give way to competitive attempts to be the better big sister. A sensitive, true-to-life story of a family's growth that never turns saccharine. Ages 3 6.
