My brother, my sister and me - a first look at sibling rivalry ISBN: 9780750028615
Harker, Lesley and Thomas, Pat
Published by Macdonald, 2000

We meet a family with three children and see them through all their various feelings of jealousy. Good subtle points are made - how hard it is to share when you are unhappy, how one can imagine how nice it would be to be an only child, etc. In the end we see positive things about being in a family - having others to share games and chores with, sharing love, even though we sometimes fight. Lovely, warm pictures help make the points, and a page of guidelines for parents and teachers, as well as further books to read and some useful contact numbers add to the whole. A very useful introduction to the subject.
