But I Wanted a Baby Brother!
Oliver really, really wanted a brother and so, understandably tries to exchange his baby sister in this very funny and highly familiar family tale. Lighthearted illustrations add to the humor and the story’s satisfying conclusion.
My Mom Is Trying to Ruin My Life
No matter how much her parents' actions disconcert the narrator (like kissing her in public!) the benefits (unconditional love) ultimately outweigh any embarrassment. Expressive cartoons reveal the parents' perspective in this gently humorous, recognizable saga.
Watch the Stars Come Out
Every once in awhile, Grandma shares the story of her mother's journey to America as a young girl. Grandma doesn't leave anything out, from the moment her mother boards the ship with her older brother to the moment the children are reunited with their parents. Levinson offers a touching portrayal of the immigrant experience that children will relate to, complemented by Goode's detailed and often humorous illustrations. This book is featured in Reading Rainbow episode #29 about immigration.
