Selfish Sister
Selfish Sister
Selfish Sister by New York Times-bestselling author David Sedaris offers a hilariously twisted look at young siblings. This picture book features funny (and demented!) illustrations by New Yorker artist Bob Staake that will delight readers and parents alike.
This selfish sister only thinks of herself, and she wants it allβeven her brother's kidney! Everything must belong to her! But who can possibly tell her "no"? Her family must cater to every whimβbut where does that leave sister in the end?
With rhymes and illustrations, David Sedaris and Bob Staake have created a sickly hysterical yet genuine romp of a read.
