Author Charice Mericle Harper shares some of her childhood with readers in BAD SISTER. Those with siblings will no doubt relate to this graphic novel on some level. Charice's role as the bad sister will speak to older siblings who spent countless hours tormenting a younger sibling while other readers will relate to Charice's little brother as the one being tormented.
Each chapter focuses on a power held by the bad sister as she consistently makes life miserable for her little brother. Daniel is the perfect target for experiments, torture, blame, and just plain fun times. There are times when Charice discusses the uncontrollable impulses she felt to pick on Daniel. Other times she shares the regret she felt when Daniel is injured because of one of her schemes.
