It's hard to be a good big brother, especially when your little brother is getting all the praise for growing more than you! Simon is the popular cheeky rabbit creation from French author/illustrator Stephanie Blake, seen on Channel 5's Milkshake. He's a bit rude and a bit naughty but lots of fun and when he sees his baby brother being bullied, he shows a caring, protective side too. The artwork is colourful, bold and highly expressive.
It’s time to be measured and Simon is annoyed. Casper has grown three centimetres but Simon is only one centimetre taller than last time. Casper has grown more. “Has not!” says Simon. “I’m the biggest!”
Simon sees injustice everywhere. And he doesn’t even care when silly Casper gets bullied at the park. Until he starts to feel funny inside....Simon can help because “I’m the biggest!” “Are not,” says Casper...
This book includes the classic child’s retort: ‘So what!’ It will strike a chord with children and parents everywhere.” Julia Marshall, Publisher
