She Come Bringing Me That Little Baby Girl

The main idea is a boy at first he did not like his sister and then he liked her. My favorite part is when the mom said I used to be a baby girl . I would recommend this book to a friend because it shows you how to take care of your sister and brother. By: D.H. Age: 6 Los Angeles, CA.

Sweet Book

"Kevin wants a baby brother. So when his mama brings home a baby girl, Kevin wants her to go back to the hospital and get a baby boy instead. When Kevin finds out she can't, he is so disappointed. At first Kevin doesn't want anything to do with this new baby girl. But soon Kevin finds the pleasure of being the older brother of his baby sister." I liked this book a lot. It reminds me of myself, because I wanted a baby brother, too, not a sister. I think that even though Kevin is a boy, him and I share a lot of the same feelings. But all in all, I love my sister just like Kevin, and I think we both had a happy ending to our stories.
