Book Review: My sister, Alicia May By Nancy Tupper Ling





I picked this book out at my local library to do a review on my blog.  ALL OPINIONS ARE MINE. 

Based on the lives of two sisters, this story expresses the challenges and joys of growing up with a sibling who has special needs. In many ways, Rachel and Alicia are like any sisters, but Rachel knows her sister is very different and very special because she has Down syndrome. Though Rachel occasionally feels frustrations and resentment about having to help watch over her special sister, she most often feels love, acceptance, and pride for her. Exquisitely written with humor and compassion, this story focuses on the sisters' relationship and their respective places in the family.
Info found on amazon

 Beautiful Story, Beautiful Illustrations. worth reading 

Love this book and the pictures are amazing very beautiful.

This is a very special book because I have friends that have down syndrome that mean the world to me plus my boyfriend has down syndrome. They sure do make the world a better place I like to call them sunshine on two feet. 


I recommend this book for any age it sure will make you smile.
