NEARLY EXACTLY ALMOST LIKE ME written by Jennifer Bradbury and illustrated by Pearl Auyeung

Jennifer Bradbury’s NEARLY EXACTLY ALMOST LIKE ME shows the adoration of an older brother for his younger sibling. Even though their skin color and hair texture is different, they share many things. Pearl Auyeung’s illustrations share in describing how “my parents first met me in a photograph. Just like my brother.” Situations and experience mount with the same refrain throughout and the visual and word images witnessing the tenderness of this blended family and brothers who adore each other even as they lie besides piles of vomit after eating too much chocolate. You can almost hear their gags and giggles throughout in this very textural and unusual adoption story.You can find out more about this book in the purchase link below.
