The difficulties of a sibling relationship are at the heart of this warm tale.

The Bookseller

An honest, funny and hopeful portrayal of tricky sibling dynamics from Ben Mantle, the illustrator of Bunnies on a Bus and Bunnies in a Boat. With stunning illustrations, this is a must-have book for children aged 3, 4, 5 and 6 with brothers or sisters, and for parents and teachers who want to teach kids about sibling relationships and how to resolve disagreements and conflicts themselves.

“I love my big brother, Felix.
We can read each other’s MINDS.
We can take over the WORLD together.
He is the bestest big brother ever.”

Nano loves his big brother, Felix, but sometimes Felix gets annoyed and frustrated – he wants some SPACE; he's fed up of Nano following him around. Feeling hurt and sad after Felix bans him from the garden treehouse, Nano decides he can make his own fun. He doesn't need anyone else. But when his game in the garden goes wrong, and he ends up feeling even worse than he already did, there's only one person who knows exactly how to cheer him up. Can you guess who that is?

Writing from his own fraternal experience, as well as being a dad to two little boys himself, Ben Mantle captures all the little (and big) ups and downs, laughs and tears (and sometimes shouts!), of sibling relationships that will give children the confidence to try and sort out their own differences through patience, imaginative play and making compromises.
