Sinossi
Cosa fai se hai una sorellina pestifera? Le scrivi delle lettere per dirglielo, ovviamente! Quali sono i criteri con cui si "valuta" una sorella minore? Be', in base a quanto strilla, è irritante, ha paura del buio, si rifiuta di mangiare i fagioli e tira i capelli. Ispirata ai bigliettini che si scrivevano i figli di Alison McGhee, questa collezione di lettere e messaggi illustrati di un fratello maggiore alla sorella minore rivelano l'affetto speciale - e la capacità di sopportazione - che lega i fratelli. Fra graphic-novel ed epistolario, "Cara sorellina" esplora il rapporto tra due fratelli attraverso una carrellata di messaggi, disegni e lettere scritti nell'arco di dieci anni da un fratello alla sorellina minore. Una storia attraverso parole e immagini, che racconta la crescita di un genuino affetto e si rivolge sia ai preadolescenti che devono affrontare grandi cambiamenti sia agli adulti che talvolta non riescono a capire il loro punto di vista. "I disegni di Bluhm completano il testo scritto a mano, imitando gli schizzi del ragazzo e il modo in cui cambiano nel tempo. La relazione tra fratello e sorella sconfina forse nella nostalgia, ma è anche il ritratto spassionato e realistico di una realtà della vita: il rapporto tra fratelli in tutte le sue sfaccettature". Età di lettura: da 6 anni.

This was recommended to me at the start of the year, and I found it surprisingly difficult to track down a reasonably priced copy. I ended up with a second hand copy from Abebooks.
