Making Brothers and Sisters Best Friends -- How to Fight the GOOD Fight at Home! , written by 3 siblings and illustrated by their dad! You'll find what you thought impossible - possible. Here is Sarah Mally's comment about their book: Brothers and sisters are among the most important people in life, yet often they are also the most trouble. My brother, sister, and I have become concerned as we have observed the way many siblings fight, argue, and miss out on the close relationship that God intends for them to have. The problem is not just the surface battles, but the underlying attitudes, wrong concepts, and offenses. Many broken relationships never get fixed. Few enjoy the special life-long treasure that God intended. Our emphasis in this book is not merely "getting along" with your brothers and sisters, but making them your BEST FRIENDS. Since every chapter of the book has a section written by each of us, the book has three perspectives and three personalities. It includes many personal stories and insights about how we have learned to become best friends. Author Sarah Mally  Stephen Mally  Harold Mally
