This review is for the children's book Just Me and My Little Brother by Mercer Mayer.

This book is really short. In my opinion, this book is great for a child learning to read and the illustrations are great.

How many siblings really get along THAT well? Not any that I know of, but that's okay because it's still a good learning tool.

Despite the unrealistic idea of an older sibling wanting that much to do with his little brother, I highly recommend this book.
Cute imagination by a loving, older brother!
great book to show modeling from a sibling to another.
Younger siblings can learn their older brothers/sisters are still important to them.
We all loves our brother and sisters. This book is about the love of brothers and the best things about having a brother.
This book is about a boy who takes his sister to the park. They do all kinds of fun things at the park and their mom happily gives permission for them to do the same the next day.

Mercer Mayer was born December 30, 1943 in Little Rock Arkansas. While attending school at the Honolulu Museum of Art, Mayer decided to enter the field of children's book illustration. He created a portfolio of sketches and peddled them wherever he could. He moved to New York City in 1964, pursuing further instruction at the Art Students League of show more New York, where he met an artist named Marianna who became his first wife. He soon created a new portfolio and with these new sketches persuaded editors at Dial Press and Harper & Row to give him some illustration work. Mayer published his first book, A Boy, a Dog, and a Frog, at Dial Press in 1967. It was notable for being a completely wordless picture book one that tells its story entirely with pictures. Mayer was one of the first illustrators to be credited for using this format. Five more books in this series were to follow. Mayer joined Golden Publishing, creators of Little Golden Books, in 1976. Through them he has sold his "Little Critter" and "Little Monster" series, which are popular with beginning readers. His title Just Me and My Dad made The New York Times Best Seller List for 2012. In 2015, his title Little Critter: Just a Little Love, also made the list. His holiday book, Merry Christmas Mom and Dad, is also a bestseller. (Bowker Author Biography) show less
