Book Descriptions
for With My Brother by Eileen Roe and Robert Casilla
From Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC)
A preschool-aged Latino boy describes all the things he admires about his teenaged brother who rides a bus to school, has a paper route and plays on a baseball team. The younger brother looks forward to a time when he'll be big enough to do all those things, too, but in the meantime he enjoys the time he and his big brother spend together wrestling, playing catch, and reading stories. The simple, patterned text, in English and Spanish, is accompanied by realistic, full-page watercolor paintings. (Ages 3-6)
