“I am having a baby” announced Samuel for their Monday morning show and tell. “You can’t, you’re a boy”, a classmate in Mr. McDonald’s room, spoke up. Soon everyone in the class was having something. From twins to triplets to puppies to dinosaurs, the children were all imagining what it would be like to care for a young one.

Samuel’s excitement fades as he is quickly reminded about sharing his toys, stinky diapers and all the crying that will be going on. Will Samuel be ready to become a big brother?

A cute story for siblings- to- be to help prepare them for a new baby brother or sister.
