I've got a brother, he's little and pesky. I've got a sister, she's big and bossy. So that leaves me, I'm the one stuck in the middle. I had an important message from school, so I left my little brother, Old Dan, thanking Mrs Brown for bringing us home and everything. As soon as I got inside the door, my mother told me off for so many things at once, I forgot about the message. That's what mothers are like. I had to do my school assignments. Dan insisted on helping me, which was no help at all and made a big mess as usual. I asked my big sister, Em (that's Em for Emma) to help us with my assignments and she threatened to zap us. That's what sisters and brothers are like. I enjoy drawing and so I decided to put some in this book. Suddenly Em was helpful because she likes drawing and she stuck in her own bits. Em said we have to call them 'illustrations'. I asked her why we have to call them that and she said, "Because that's what they are called." You could buy this book for Christmas, or Easter, or Thanksgiving, or whenever you like. Em says it all depends on the time of year
