My Brother

Reach for this book when your child is caught in the shadow of an older sibling and needs a reminder of their own unique magic. It is perfect for those moments when a younger child feels small, less capable, or invisible compared to the 'big kid' in the house. Anthony Browne uses his signature whimsical art to celebrate the hero worship common in childhood while gently pivoting to the younger child's own self-worth. The story follows a younger brother's list of all the amazing things his older brother can do, from being a cool skater to an amazing singer. However, the emotional heart of the book lies in the final realization that the older brother loves and admires the younger one just as much. It is a warm, silly, and deeply comforting read for children ages 3 to 7 who are navigating their place within the family dynamic.
