Anna, a very normal teenager has to deal with the disability of her newly born brother, Ben, who has hydrocephalus. Although Anna loves him, she still has difficulty showing him to her friends. The book is sensitive to the issue of disability but, also to school, bullying, friendships and other adolescent problems. The reader feels that baby Ben is a part of them. This autobiographical diary based on the author's little brother, who was born when she was four, and died when she was eight. The character of Anna and her responses to her brother seem so believable, that even without the author's note, a reader would know that she was writing with authority on the subject of disability.

Anna lived with his father, mother, and her sister. But, other brother born. However, he has disease. So, he die later. This book is sad because the young boy die at young age. ( )

The story, "Red Sky in the Morning," is a touching story. A story about a girl, Anna with a disabled brother, Benedict. She loves him more than any other cute babies. Ben being disabled makes him more special to Anna. This story teaches a moral that disabled should be considered not as an outsider. Another lesson is, try to think of positive outcome. Anna thought her classmates would laugh Ben, however, actually they welcomed him more. ( )
