I Hate My Brother Harry

 

The story behind the story

Out of print now, but in its day, this one sold several hundred thousand… possibly because everyone hates their brother or sister, at least at some point. And possibly because the illustrations, by Dick Gackenbach, were so charming and true.

 

Reviews

Publishers Weekly

Harry’s little sister finds that being a sibling almost always means mishaps and injustices, but that her brother has his good points, too. Ages 4-8.

Read Aloud with Crescent and Mark

NOT A LITTLE MONKEY, by Charlotte Zolotow, illustrted by Michelle Chessaree

"So, the little girl climbed into the big waste-basket and waited." ' Oh no,' said her mother, ' we don't want to throw you away.'"There are many ways to express love and the need for attention. Here, a busy mother and her just-a-bit naughty little girl tease each other affectionately — the little girl making her point without even uttering a word.That's today's story time — read aloud by the author's daughter at Crescent Dragonwagon's Writing, Cooking, & Workshops, with Mark Graff's "text support" and discussion."Just right for two-to-fours, the humor of this true-to-life story of a mischievous little girl who blocks her mother's attempts to clean house will elicit giggles from the lollipop set." Kirkus Reviews
