Review
​
★ "Paired with a neatly drawn cast of doll-like animals and human figures in Caldecott Honoree Idle’s spacious, harmoniously hued illustrations, Wheeler’s infectiously exclamatory rhymes present her anti-biting message with lighthearted but compelling persistence . . . A chewy theme for children with biting issues, and a rollicking readaloud for all."

Siblings share
a lot of things—
a room,
a toy,
a pet.
When you’re
together all
the time
you’re bound to
get upset!
