Overview

"My dad says, ""Leave the lizards and bugs outside like your brother does."" But I say, ""I'm not he, I'm me! I like keeping the insects in my room, that's what interests me."" This book tells the story about a younger sibling trying to have his own identity within the world that surrounds him. The younger brother is eight and is constantly mistaken for or compared to his older brother who is ten. He doesn't understand the confusion because he knows that they are clearly two completely different people, and therefore should be seen different. He goes through life patiently trying to explain to everyone who he is, hoping they would eventually get it, as he frustratingly points out the differences between the two. Lately, his most used sentence has become, ""I'm not he, I'm me!"" About the Author Debra Powers-Cook graduated from Alexander High and FIDM/Fashion Institute. She currently spends her time chauffeuring her boys to and from basketball events, volunteering at their dual immersion public school. Her interest in children's book writing came as an inspiration from her children's love for being read nightly bedtime stories and wonderful imagination.
