What is it like to be the youngest, the middle child, or the oldest sibling? Siblings explores these different perspectives through a playful and affectionate portrait of family life, capturing the joys, frustrations, rivalries, and connections that shape relationships between brothers and sisters. Rather than focusing on a single protagonist, the book invites readers to step into each sibling’s place and see family dynamics from multiple points of view.

Created by Patricia Auerbach and Roberta Asse, the book stands out for its original format: three books of different sizes bound into a single volume, each dedicated to one sibling. The physical design becomes part of the storytelling, with the largest book representing the oldest child, the medium-sized one the middle child, and the smallest the youngest.

The illustrations combine collage, drawing, textures, photography, and lettering, creating a rich visual narrative that expands the meaning of the text. Images and words work together to tell parallel stories, rewarding attentive readers with details that reveal emotions, relationships, and experiences beyond what is explicitly written.
