The story of Peter realizing that things have changed now that the new baby is home gives a peek into children's minds as they adjust at home. His parents painted his old crib and high chair pink for the baby. I loved his attempt to save his little chair from being given away until he realized that he couldn't fit in it anymore. Peter's family has a new baby sister and Peter's parents start painting his old furniture pink for the baby. Peter starts to get jealous of his old items going to the baby and doesn't want his chair to be painted and threatens to run away. A good read for families expecting babies and how to handle this with their siblings who may not be open to the idea. 2-6 Social Moral Fort Steilacoom ECE
