This is a short and sweet book with different stories about sisters. Even though some of the stories were a bit short and uninteresting, it was still fun to read about the different bonds each pair of sisters had. I could also defiantly relate to the inside jokes and stories that were shared because I have over 300 of them with my younger sister. Overall, really great quick read!

It's a couple of short stories with pictures. I suppose it's meant to be bought as a present.
Why would anybody want a book which is essentially two dozen pictures of complete strangers I do not know. I say buy them chocolates or something.
