Just Because
‘My big sister Clemmie is my best friend.
She can’t walk, talk, move around much, cook
macaroni, pilot a plane, juggle or do algebra. I don’t know why she doesn’t do
these things. Just because.’
This heartwarming picture book about being
perfectly loved, no matter what, tells of a brother's love for his sister.
He is so enthusiastic about just how loving
and special she is, and delights in telling us about all the fun things they do
together. Only as his tale unfolds does the reader begin to realize that his
sister has special needs... and by then we just accept as he does all the
wonderful things about her.
This amusing and often touching story
encompasses the issue of disability in a charming celebration of sibling
friendship to which all children can relate.
