With her trademark simple verses and charmingly realistic illustrations, Shirley Hughes pays a visit to a lovable brother-sister pair that little readers everywhere will recognize.

Whether the two of them are depicted splashing in the rain or following footprints in the snow, sailing a toy boat or watching clothes dance around in the dryer, Shirley Hughes's quiet rhymes and slice-of-life images offer snippets of the familiar moments that make up a preschooler's world - and an endearing ode to sibling and family bonds.
