Publisher's Synopsis
This delightful story shows that two young girls from different backgrounds have a lot in common when they visit a zoo for the first time. The author's endearing story-telling abilities, as well as the artist's amazing full-color illustrations on every page, are sure to please readers of all ages around the world. Rudell Kopp published her Just Like Brothers series in 2009, which introduced the readers to the families of two six-year-old boys. This Just Like Sisters book is a continuation of the boys' tale as seen through the eyes of the boys' younger sisters. Children accepting difference, no matter what kind, is the book's important message told in an engaging, fun way. The trilogy continues. The author's fond childhood memories of train rides to the Philadelphia zoo with her father, along with enjoying visits to the Jacksonville zoo with her grandchildren, provided the inspiration for her third children's book. "People of all ages can share in the wonder and excitement of animals from all over the world in a zoo. Learning while having fun is a great avenue for exploration."
