This was a fun read on puberty. I think almost everyone begged their parents to stop talking about the birds and the bees. Nice that the older brother will be there for the younger one.

Cute story of an older brother sharing with his younger brother.
This seems to be poetry, rather than prose and the rhyme scheme written in paragraph form was distracting. It slowed the reading of the piece.
I'd recommend being "true to form" and keeping the stanzas instead of paragraphs when writing in full rhyme.

Ha-ha...this was g-r-r-r-r-r-e-a-t, Anonymous Author! To make it rhyme consistently from beginning to end, yet still maintain a funny and coherent story, must have been one daunting task.
I can only imagine.
Well, with all of the "perks" we lose when we outgrow our childhood and enter puberty, the benefits we gain in return far outweigh those we've lost.
At least, I think so.
Great story--good job! I wish you all the best in the contest.

Excellent story. Seen no mistakes. Writing was interesting.
"Sit down, little bro I've got a story to tell.
Great, now I rhyme everything I say. This really isn't my day."
Suggestion: Look over where you put the quotation marks ?

This meets the contest requirements beautifully. Yippee! Finally an entry that is encouraging and uplifting - not to mention melodic in its execution. I thoroughly enjoyed this and needed a smile after having read so many sad stories of abuse. I wish you all the best in the voting and thank you very much for sharing it.

Brilliant interpretation of the theme. It all has a ring of truth. Very well described . The illustration is touching, it makes good reading.

this was adorable, you should send this somewhere to a parent child magazine. I think boys have it a bit rougher during this stage for girls it isnt so obvious unless she sprouts double d's.

Hi Writer,
This is a nice little story that you wrote in rhyme. The picture you chose to go with it is really nice too. You did a good job in writing this and I enjoyed reading it very much.

Is rhyming another sign of puberty. LOL
I loved that you added that at the end or I would have told you to reformat the post and enter it under poetry.
Great contest entry.
