MEET THE PAIN:
My sister's name is Abigail. I call her The Great One because she thinks she's so great. Who cares if she's in third grade and I'm just in first?
MEET THE GREAT ONE:
My brother's name is Jacob Edward, but everyone calls him Jake. Everyone but me. I call him The Pain because that's what he is. He's a first-grade pain. I'll always know exactly what he's thinking. That's just the way it is.
These seven warm-hearted stories will give readers a peek at how a brother and sister relate to each other.

From the Hardcover edition.
Squabbling siblings demand a dual reading, and they get outstanding portrayals by Fred Berman and Kathleen McInerney. Berman is first-grader Jacob, who is called The Pain by his older sister, Abigail. Kathleen McInerney portrays Abigail, whom Jacob calls The Great One because she thinks shes so great! Bermans depiction of Jacob is so exuberant that hes a bit annoying. McInerney has a self-assured tone that exemplifies Abigails bossiness as an older sister. A series of vignettes typical of childhood ensues. The Great One hides the fact that she cant ride a bicycle. The Pain eavesdrops outside his sisters door. Discerning listeners will hear the tenderness beneath their rivalry. S.W. © AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine-- Copyright © AudioFile, Portland, Maine
