(4) K-3 Illustrated by Ned Gannon. Natalie's baby brother is born prematurely and stays in the hospital for months of intensive medical intervention. As Natalie waits for him (tracking the days on her calendar), she experiences emotions ranging from anger to jealousy to hope. Wojahn's story does a decent job conveying a difficult family experience, but Gannon's illustrations, grainy and awkward, are merely serviceable.
