This book is funny! Oliver wanted a baby brother more than anything in the world. Unfortunately, he got a baby sister instead. He searched high and low looking for a baby brother replacement. He never found one that was as good and smart as his sister. As his sister grew up he accepted her more and enjoyed her companionship. He no longer was searching for a baby brother. One day, his mom got pregnant and he thought finally – now I get a baby brother. Then, out popped another girl. I’d use this book in my class if there is a student who would become a big brother or sister. I’d also use this book to each acceptance and you should be happy with what you have. Some things are out of your control.… (mais)
