This sweet and funny tale of sibling rivalry shows that your greatest competition may also be the one person who understands you the most!

Lila is an artist. Drawing is her favorite thing to do! She’s also a little sister, and her big sister, Rosa, happens to be an artist, too. A really really good one. But constantly being compared to Rosa is cramping her style, and Lila begins to let doubt and insecurity take over her creative flow. That's when she finds the perfect opportunity to shine in her own spotlight: a drawing competition!


Then she sees who else has signed up for the contest. Rosa, of course. Jealousy and the fear of being overshadowed threatens to upend all of Lila's carefully laid plans—until an unexpected discovery makes her rethink everything.
