Spectacular Sisters: Amazing Stories of Sisters from Around the World written & illustrated by Aura Lewis

PUB DATE: Nov 9, 2021

A collection of concise & clear biographies of powerful sisters throughout history. Highlighting their special bond with stunning full-color illustrations. Influential women throughout history from Kamala & Maya, The Trung Sisters from Vietnam, Amelia & Muriel Earhart & so many more.

My daughters & their cousins really loved this book. They loved the beautiful illustrations & the stories behind the sisters, many times not realizing that so many had such great bond with their sisters. This book celebrates sisterhood!

“She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling even in the dark.” – Barbara Alpert

With 3 young daughters, 2 of which are twins (they got busy with extracurriculars so had to have their baby dolls take their place for the photoshoot), I cannot emphasize what a special connection they have with each other. They fight everyday & love everyday. I hear them consoling each other, find little love letters they write to each other saying “let’s be BFFs again, I love you so much. I’m sorry.” It melts my heart everyday how truly lucky they are to have each other.
