Comparison of inequality rule: menos + sustantivo + que so of course the question is about who likes books more, I was just wondering is this ''a'' necesary? - Roofy, Jun 12, 2012
I think it is the 'a ' that makes the difference here. Wait for gramm atical person! - annierats, Jun 12, 2012

It depends, does he like the books more than he likes his sister, or, does he like books more than his sister does?? How am I to know?

''A el le gustan menos los libros que a su hermana

A él le gustan menos los libros que a su hermana. It is correct. You need the "a"

''A el le gustan menos los libros que su hermana?''

It means that he likes books less than he likes his sister.

I would go with "a su hermana".
