What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

From the creator of Ready Rabbit Gets Ready! comes a hilarious photo-story of sisterhood and one-upmanship. Philomena needs new glasses. Her sister Audrey wants them, too. And if Philomena and Audrey have them, shouldn’t their sister Nora Jane also have them? In this utterly amusing tale of sisterhood, glasses, purses, and dresses, these girls soon make an important discovery. Not everyone needs the same things!

    This is such a funny, weird book—I can't decide what I think about it. The message is nice (we don't all need to have the same things) and the photographs of accessorized guinea pigs are great for a young audience, but it's one I'd try to avoid having to read to my toddler again and again.

    "A pitch-perfect...clever story of sibling rivalry. Delightful!"
