I might need to buy this one for my niece. The big brother is telling a story and does a fabulous job telling and rhyming. And then the sister interupts. This happens frequently and the brother goes with it and changes his story to match his sisters in interjections. But by the end, the brother is fed up until he realizes how much of a genius his sister is. This book is genius. Flat.It has an amazing story and great illustrations.

What an incredible last book of 2024! I could tell within the first couple of paragraphs that this book is special. It has a vibrant energy radiating off the page, as if the words and characters could spring to life and waltz right into your heart. And I think they did?! I just loved it. #Aardvark #AardvarkBookClub
pickThis was on my radar after seeing it on @TheKidUpstairs #auldlangspine list this year (we were previous matches and I still stalk her reviews 😅). I‘m glad this caught my eye because it was a great “quiet” listen during this busy time of year. Side: many books are described as “quiet” but seems fitting here. Interior lives of adult siblings (a brother & sister) who are navigating very different paths but both struggle in their own ways. Grief.
This book might be better for parents/the home than in the classroom, but would still be a cute book for the classroom library!

pickElmore Green gets a new sibling after being an only child. A book about sibling jealousy, adjusting to a new sibling, and realizing they can be your best friend!
I enjoyed this book and think it would be good to use in class as a share for students with siblings, or when preparing young children for a new sibling or family changes!
pickThe New Baby at Your House (1985) is a nonfiction book by Joanna Cole that helps young children understand and adjust to the arrival of a new sibling. Through simple text and illustrations, it explains what to expect and reassures kids about the changes a new baby brings to the family.
Aardvark Book Club's November challenge was a challenge! I only had the vowels e and a to work with. The challenge was to come up with a word stacking Aardvark books and using the first letter of the first word of the title. Each letter was worth a certain number of points. I came up the word watercress for 15 points.
