Chloe Instead

Beschreibung

Molly always dreamed of having a sister who’s just like her. But she got Chloe, instead. . . . “A charming story about sibling love.” —School Library Journal   These two sisters are nothing alike: Molly loves to color with crayons. Chloe prefers the taste of wax. Molly loves to read. Chloe prefers to nibble on books. Molly is frustrated! But then she realizes that maybe sisters aren’t the ones next to you on the piano bench—they’re the ones dancing to the music you play . . .   This humorous, perceptive snapshot of sisterhood is perfect for those who may need a bit of convincing what fun little siblings can be!   “Will be appreciated in families welcoming a new addition to the household.” —Kirkus Reviews   “The final image of the two sisters snuggling is pure parental delight.” —The New York Times
