Dear Reader,
Who’s always home for a party? Who’s with you on family
vacations? Who’s with you when your friends are not? Your
brothers and sisters, that’s who!
In these pages, you’ll find all kinds of ideas for celebrations and
activities to do together. And more than that, The Sister Book offers solid advice on how to get through rough stuff with siblings, how to support them through hard times as well as happy ones, and how to share your space. To inspire you, there’s even advice from real girls and stories from real sisters.
Your siblings are your built-in buddies, sharing the good and
the not-so-good. The Sister Book will help you make the most of that special bond—and help you make memories that will keep you smiling years from now.
So why wait? Jump in and get started!
Your friends at American Girl

SAFETY NOTES
Any time you see this hand or when you
think a project or recipe is too hard to do your-
self, ask an adult to help you. Be sure an adult
supervises any cutting or cooking. Also make
sure you keep small pieces, such as beads and
rhinestones, put away so that younger siblings
don’t eat them!
The ideas in this book are for girls age 8 and
older. If you’d like to do an activity with a
younger sibling, always check with an adult first.

Sister Story
GABRIELLE & HAYLEY
IDENTICAL TWINS Gabrielle and Hayley are
not exactly alike. Even though they were born eight minutes apart, their birthdays are on dif- ferent days—November 10 and November 11!
Still, these 12-year-olds have a lot in common.
“We’re good friends,” says Gabrielle (who goes
by the nickname Gabri), “and we’re both into
sports”—including cross country, track, and
basketball. Gabri and Hayley also like to draw,
and they play on the same volleyball team,
but Gabri says she’s better at setting and
Hayley is better at overhand serving.
