review 1: Hannah's older sister, Dee Dee, drives her crazy. She takes Hannah's favorite apron and makes a purse out of it. When Hannah's best friend comes over, Dee Dee takes over and makes Hannah be the butler while she and Hannah's friend are royalty. Dee Dee asks Hannah if she wants the last chocolate chip muffin for breakfast and then eats it anyway.Hannah decides she's had enough. She's packing a bag of her favorite things to prepare for running away when she realized that she can't find Brown Bear. She eats the chocolate bar she packed while thinking of where Bear can be. She plays with her pet ladybug. She played dress up and had a tea party all by herself.Eventually Dee Dee knocks on Hannah's door and offers her Brown Bear. She had sewn the missing eye back on. Hannah asks i... moref Dee Dee will play nice and not hog the jacks and not make her be a butler. Dee Dee agrees and the sisters reconcile.
review 2: Younger sister Hannah never seems to measure up, literally or figuratively, to her older sister Dee Dee. Dee Dee takes advantage of her age and height and bosses Hannah around, eating her food and claiming her toys and friends for her very own. Just as Hannah is ready to leave, she changes her mind after a kind act from Dee Dee. Still, there's no way things are going back to the way they were before. Lively gouache and pen and ink illustrations accompany a story with which many siblings may be familiar. less
