My Sister, My Friend: Growing up with my sister in West Africa

This book is about relationships. As children, my older sister and I got along very well. Although we were different in many ways, we were able to complement each other. That closeness continues today. When my daughters were growing up, they would bicker and fight. I then realized how unique my childhood relationship with my sister was. That prompted me to teach them that it is possible for siblings to not fight one another. They learned that lesson well and are now close friends. I hope this book will encourage both parents and children to learn to appreciate and celebrate what they have in their respective families.
