About:

"Sisters take care of each other, watch out for each other, comfort each other, and are there for each other through thick and thin," observes Sister Bonnie L. Oscarson, Young Women general president.

In this delightful and inspiring book, Sister Oscarson encourages all women to look beyond differences in age, culture, and circumstance in order to better nurture and serve one another. She explains that all women—young or old, married or single, working in an office or running a home—have unique talents and gifts to share. Focusing on the boundless blessings that Latter-day Saint women enjoy, Sister Oscarson urges women throughout the Church to live and inspire others in ways that realize their greatest potential.

I enjoyed reading this short and delightful book called “What Makes Us Sisters,” by Bonnie L. Oscarson. The illustrations and stories presented in the book are inspiring. The layout is beautifully displayed. This book is for all women, young and old. Sister Oscarson encourages women to look beyond their differences to nurture and serve one another. All women have unique talents and gifts to share. Women are here to inspire others to realize their greatest potential and can do much good in the world! I particularly liked the story of Mary and Elisabeth from the scriptures, representing two women who supported and helped one another in their unique situations, despite their generation gap. All in all, this is a fun bookto give as a gift or have in your collection! I recommend this to all women!
