Sibling Revelry: 8 Steps to a Successful Adult Sibling Relat by Jonathan Harmon, ACSW, LSW (Philadelphia, PA United States) 5 Stars
January 07, 2002
Finally, a gentle and imaginative book about the vital, lifelong role we play in the lives of our brothers and sisters! The authors have succeeded in creating an exciting manual designed for both professionals and lay people. As a seasoned family therapist, I found the book packed with refreshing ideas and exercises presented with clarity, intelligence and humor. I felt as though the authors were personally supporting me as I sometimes struggled with the intensity of a concept and its applications to my work with a variety of clients; the authors anticipated my difficulties and, within a few pages, "guided" me through an impasse to the next level. In addition, I sent copies to my own siblings. This small act has already deepened our adult relations with each other and helped us communicate in more heartfelt ways across the miles. This guidebook is a joy to read (and implement) for anyone with a sibling who is beloved or despised, close or estranged. For family therapists, it's unquestionably a "must read."

sibling success! 5 Stars

A wonderful book on reconnecting with your adult siblings, by a team who oughta know--they're siblings themselves! I haven't seen any other books out there on the topic of grown-up siblings, and I found this to be a terrific resource as well as a good read and full of great tips and ideas.
