OverviewIn this delightful follow-up to Maple, sisters Maple and Willow smooth over a rough patch in their best-friendship in their own unique way. Celebrating imagination and inventive play, Lori Nichols' follow-up to Maple perfectly captures the dynamics of siblings and their ability to figure things out on their own and find a way to meet halfway. Maple and Willow do everything together. They love playing outside throughout the whole year, welcoming the sun, rain, leaves, and snow. But it's not always sunshine and rainbows, because sometimes big sisters can be bossy-and sometimes little sisters can be frustrating-and even the best of friends need a break from each other... at least until they can no longer bear to be apart.
