Product Description

My Rotten Redheaded Older Brother, 2008-05-02
There is an older brother and a girl who live with their grand parents. Babushka the grandma tells great stories. The older brother is mean to his sister when Babushka is not there. Older brother thinks he can do everything better den his sister. The older brother can get more berries than his sister. The sister said she can chew more sour rhubarb than the brother. He brother likes the rhubarb and the older brother still beats her. The girl sees a shooting star. She wishes to do anything better than her brother. The carnival comes to town. The older brother says that he can eat more hot dogs. The girl rode the merry go round even after her brother got off. The girl fell down. Her brother took her ton the bed. The girl woke up. Everyone was worried. The girl had fallen off the merry go round. Her brother had carried her home. She said "Thank you." The older brother and the sister felt happy. They were friends. I liked this book because the boy is mean but after he is nice.

My Rotten Redheaded Older Brother, 2007-10-03
I love the illustrations, they seemed to come alive. The expressions of the characters and the way the poses flow makes the story that more exciting. The moral of the story surely hit home. I will enjoy reading this book to my grand children.

My Rotten Redheaded older Brother., 2007-01-19
I loved this book! It was hilarious! Trisha has a very mean older brother named Richard. Richard could do everything better than Trisha. He could: sit the longest, burp the loudest, get the dirtiest, run the fastest, climb the highest, and throw the farthest. Trisha was so angry! She wanted to be better at something than Richard. When she saw a shooting star she wished for something she could do better.
Her wish comes true-but you'll have to read the book to find out how!
Patricia Palacco is a great story teller. Sometimes she writes funny books and sometimes she writes sad and thoughtful books. All of her books are great!

 My Annoying Brother, 2005-04-15
My Rotten Red Headed Older Brother, written by Patricia Polacco, is about a girl and her older brother. Her brother is always nice when their parents or their grandmother are around, but when they aren't around the girl's brother is really mean. He makes fun of her because she can't beat him in anything.
I like this book because it's kind of like the relationship between my brother and me. I recommend it for anyone who likes well-written picture books.

Brother's aren't so bad after all, 2003-08-07
This story, based on Polacco's on experiences as a child, tells how Tricia's older brother does everything faster and better than she can, but soon she discovers that brothers aren't so bad after all, at least sometimes. The pencil and marker cut-out illustrations show Polacco's expertise with the media, highlighting the expressions on the characters' faces and giving a glimpse as to the lengths young Tricia will go to try and best her brother. This autobiographical story looks at one facet of Polacco's life, one that most children can relate to and understand, that is, if they have rotten older siblings like Tricia's.
