    About Soupy Saturdays with the Pain and the Great One

    MEET THE PAIN:
    My sister’s name is Abigail. I call her The Great One because she thinks she’s so great. Who cares if she’s in third grade and I’m just in first?

    MEET THE GREAT ONE:
    My brother’s name is Jacob Edward, but everyone calls him Jake. Everyone but me. I call him The Pain because that’s what he is. He’s a first-grade pain. I’ll always know exactly what he’s thinking. That’s just the way it is.

    These seven warm-hearted stories will give readers a peek at how a brother and sister relate to each other.
