Brothers might not look alike, but they like the same things. In the fall they paint pumpkins. In the winter they ski and slide and slurp hot soup. All year long they have fun together, for these two are more than just brothers—they’re the best of friends! Friends and Pals and Brothers, Too is a 2009 Bank Street - Best Children's Book of the Year.
