My Sister is a Treasure

A warm and affectionate look at the funny ways we describe a new baby from the creators of My Brother is an Avocado.
"Dad says my sister is a treasure.
I can't wait until we play pirates together and dig holes to look for more.
I'll be the captain and wear the hat because I'm the oldest."
A girl takes the terms of endearment her family use at face value when she wonders what it would be like if her new baby sister really was a treasure or a ray of sunshine or a dimply dumpling in this adorable new picture book from Tracy Darnton and Yasmeen Ismail.
- a funny, fresh, relatable and reassuring take on the arrival of a new sibling
- a playful look at the quirkiness of language and terms of endearment
