Why read it?
1 author picked A Baby Sister for Frances as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
It’s a family of badgers but Frances has some very human emotions about having a baby sibling. She is not outright hostile but does pack a rucksack with snacks and runs away – as far as under the dining table. Her very understanding parents handle it in an exemplary fashion and Frances sees there are advantages to being the older sister, since babies can’t eat chocolate cake.
From Mary's list on babies.
