What's in the Egg, Little Pip?

40 pp. | McElderry | December, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4169-4204-7 $16.99
(4) K-3 Illustrated by Jane Chapman. Penguin Little Pip awaits the arrival of a sibling. She resents the attention her parents pay the egg, but she still helps protect it through winter's storms. When her brother hatches, Pip sings that he "makes our family just right." Though the text is message-y, Little Pip's story is gently reassuring. A palette of golds, blues, and purples captures the Antarctic's seasons.
