Nothing Like Christine: Living Through Literature with Aunt Curly's Collection (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781425111298)

Christine was my big sister. She was my "bestest" best friend sometimes, and a just-all-right friend when we had two very different views on a given matter. Through all of those times, I loved her and she made a great difference in my life.

Believe it or not, we were both born on September 3rd! This was most unusual since we were not twins. I was born five years later. We were two sisters as different as they came; we looked nothing alike. She was short, petite, and a brilliant homemaker who loved to read.

"Tene," as she was affectionately called, was talented in arts and crafts, sewing, knitting, and cooking. However, for all the things that were different and unique in our lives...we were sisters who had always shared so much. We had a strong love for God and family.

Enjoy this poetic, true life journey about a sister so dear. She was the greatest! Her greatness was in her service--- not just service to her family but to everyone she encountered. She's really not gone; just not seen. In my heart and my thoughts, our love will always be remembered as something very special: gentle, joyful, strong, and giving. We shared one of the most wonderful blessings: the incredible and precious gift of being "sisters."
