(4) PS When a little girl is told that her mommy's "big fat tummy" holds "a special something," she tries to figure out what it is. A big round hippo? A kicking kangaroo? She finally learns what it is when she meets her new baby brother at the hospital. While the premise--that the girl is left to guess rather than being clued in--is improbable, the warmly illustrated story will amuse a young audience with its silly suggestions.
