Raisin is a special little cow until her baby brother comes along and then she must learn to do for herself what the other cows had been helping her to do. She resents baby brother but learns to love him as well as herself as she learns that she can do things for herself. Sweet story that siblings will identify with. Illustration are very endearing. (
