Illustrated by
Amélie Graux.
A young boy reacts to a new baby. At first, he's upset: everyone oohs and aahs when the baby wiggles but ignores him. Gradually, he realizes his own skills--using the toilet, eating real food, teaching the newcomer--and looks forward to his "BIG plans" for their future. The illustrations' bright colors and expressive, googly-eyed characters reflect the book's sunny but familiar message.
