Selected by Indie Booksellers for the Winter 2009 Kids' List
“This is one of the best big sibling books I've seen in ages, as we follow Supersister throughout her day (as she is a great help to her mom and more). Perfect for kids expecting a new baby in the family.”
-- Katherine Fergason, Bunch of Grapes Bookstore, Vineyard Haven, MA


Description

Brave enough to walk to the bus stop alone. Strong enough to lift--and pour--her own bowl of cereal. Able to read a story aloud all by herself. Who could this masked girl be?

It's Supersister!

This energetic and playful story follows hero through a typical day of accomplishing ordinary feats for her family in an extraordinary way. And by the end you'll find out why she's such a super helper to her mother and how she earned her name. This fresh take on a new sibling story is sure to empower young readers, as it reminds them of all the super things they can do by themselves, and makes it possible for any child to become a super-helper.
