Really lovely way of making sibling feel useful and needed. Very real feelings about wanting special needs brother to be involved with play.

Particularly good for a 5 year old who's trying to understand why their younger sister is so naughty at times, and needs a bit of extra atttention. This book was perfect for our current situation
