A young boy wearing a red cape resents his new baby brother, but when relatives and parents exclaim the baby is so sweet they could "eat him up," Tom springs into action to protect him. The illustrations add humor to a one-note, predictable story that doesn't add much to the crowded field of new sibling books.
