Sibling conflict is incredibly common, and Raymond Antrobus' picture book, "Terrible Horses" takes a creative look at how sibling relationships can help us grow.
Sibling conflict is common and can lead to antisocial behavior, peer difficulties, and other concerns.
Raymond shared more about his book, and his own experience navigating sibling conflict in our discussion. Jealousy, personified as"the green-eyed monster" by Shakespeare, is a complex emotion because it's hard to express it healthily. That's where anger comes in as a follow-up feeling to jealousy.

I acknowledged it rather than hide it and let it fester quiet resentment.
I hope every reader finds their own connection and resonance with the story, and that it encourages more generous perspectives of our personal and interpersonal conflicts. My son is almost 3 and when he reads it he just seems to love looking at the horses and their colorful intensities. Even that is enough for me. The illustrator Ken Wilson-Max did an excellent job.
