A CHILDREN'S BOOK COUNCIL HOT OFF THE PRESS PICK

A board book about sibling adventures, squabbles, and reconnection, following three different pairs of brothers

There’s something special about brothers. When brothers play together, magic happens! A brother is a friend for life, but that doesn’t mean there won’t be disagreements sometimes. Follow three cute sets of brothers as they play and explore together, argue, and ultimately reconnect. For anyone with boys who need a little nudge to get along, Brothers Are Brothers Forever is a sweet reminder that arguments happen, but sincere apologies can mend any rift. With simple text from author Brooke Jorden and gentle illustrations by Sejung Kim, this adorable board book is the perfect gift for siblings.
