My Sister My Friend Maria Hoskins

My Sister My Friend is the story of two sisters who laugh together, play together, fuss together, and do all the things that siblings do, regardless of their physical differences. One sister, the youngest, has special needs and requires a little extra help in her daily activities, while the older sister is independent and attentive. Although they are different in their capabilities, they share a sibling's bond and love. This children's book is for every family member who may need a little extra help, but always gives a whole lot of love!




My Sister My Friend is a fun book about family, fun, life and love. The message lets the reader easily identify with the activities and actions of siblings, in this case sisters. It empathetically gives a peek into the daily occurrences with a special needs sibling and it motivates the reader to immediately personalize and share their story. My sister is my BEST friend!
