Shirley's Wonderful Baby

(3) PS Illustrated by Bruce Degen. Hippo Shirley doesn't like the attention her baby brother receives. When babysitter Ms. Mump arrives, she professes a non-interest in babies, insisting that Shirley change Stanley's diaper and feed and burp him. Each time, Ms. Mump says, "Revolting," slyly allowing Shirley to both defend and express appreciation for the baby. Warm, colorful art illustrates the clever story.
