Another Brother

Life for Davy was glorious, as long as he had his mother and father to himself. But then he got a brother, Petey. When Davy sang, Petey cried. When Davy created a masterpiece, Petey spat up on it. And then he got another brother, Mike! And another, Stu! And another, Mickey! And another . . . and another. . . . Until Davy had 12 whole brothers! And that was only the beginning. . . . “Cordell emphasizes the humor in the once only child's whiplash of conflicting emotions. Baby brothers may be a pain, but the havoc they create can be painfully funny.” — “The pen-and-ink and watercolor artwork is filled with humorous detail. Think Richard Scarry's warmth and scale, with a minimalist approach to setting. . . . The story is a great way to discuss life as a half-empty or half-full vessel, and the very human struggles of sibling rivalry.” — ,
