Sheila Rae’s peppermint stick


Written and illustrated by Kevin Henkes                                                                       
2001 Harper Collins  

Older siblings really know how to torment younger ones! Sheila Rae has a peppermint stick and she’s finding every excuse in the book not to share with her little sister, Louise. Until an accident breaks the peppermint stick in half creating two pieces: making just enough to share. Henkes’ illustrations of prancing mouse characters, bright colors and patterns is a sure fire attention grabber. A perfect book to teach children the concept of sharing.
