Summary: Emma likes to draw princesses. Her little sister Lucie prefers kitties. Emma and Lucie might not always get along, but can their drawings? Deborah Freedman proves once and for all whether kitties and princesses can live happily ever after in her charmingly original picture book debut.

Teaching Tips:
1. Discuss the ending in terms of the two sisters’ remarks. (e.g., How could the older sister have answered differently to show her acceptance of her sister’s apology?) 2. Write about a problem you had with a sibling or friend. How did you or could you have resolved it? 3. Draw your own cat and princess. Write a reversed story where the princess untangles the cat. 4. Discuss the learner profile and character traits listed above. Was Lucie being accountable for her acts? How could Emma have acted differently in a way to change the outcome of the scribbling? 5. What are alternatives to scribbling out your work when frustrated? 6. Discuss sibling rivalry and make connections with your own life.


Insider Tip... A graphic style format is used in this story to indicate conversations between the siblings.
