Classic picture book revamped for new readers.
Parents need to know that young readers with siblings will certainly find it easy to relate to this book's characters: Abigail and Jacob fight a lot, but they care about each other, too. The language will be familiar to parents with young kids: boys sticking pussy willows up their noses and calling them furry boogers, etc. The siblings' reactions are also spot-on: When Jacob is found after being lost in a mall, the Great One insists, "I always knew you were okay. I mean, who'd want to steal you? You were just being a pain, same as always." Readers might pick up on gentle lessons about not doing something just because friends do and about compromising -- but mostly they'll be laughing at the situations that these spunky siblings are constantly finding themselves in.
