Summary:

The Pain and the Great One is about a brother and a sister who both complain about each other all of the time. This book is divided into two parts – one for the sister to rant about her brother, the pain, and one for the brother to rant about his sister, the great one. In each section, they complain about everything the other one does. At the end of the great one’s views, her parents allow her to stay up later because she is older than the pain. She is excited at first, but then realizes that nothing is fun without the pain. At the end of the pain’s views, he wants to play by himself, but quickly realizes it is not fun without his sister. This story displays the typical love-hate relationship between siblings. In the end, family is more important than we can ever imagine.
