By Kari-Lynn Winters & Dave Whamond
When Brandon’s big brother feels left out of the party preparations, he cleverly comes up with the exciting idea to “Double Up” on all of the party goodies, so that both brothers can have a rockin’ good time. Double the cakes, double the balloons, and double the fun!
This fun-loving story perfectly captures the essence of shared family experiences with comical illustrations from Dave Whamond , and Kari-Lynn’s witty text that’s sure to get everyone.

“This is a great story to tell siblings who feel envious when it is someone else’s birthday, because sharing a party can be difficult. An upbeat addition to math or SEL collections.”—Booklist Reviews
“With each new activity, young readers will learn how to double up numbers one through ten and enjoy some rhyming onomatopoeia as things are wiggly-jiggly, bouncy-wouncy, uppy-puppy, and more. The day may end with only one book and a special aunt but the learning that happened through the sharing of Brandon’s special day will not be forgotten by readers.” — CanLit for Little Canadians
