Ed's new baby sister ISBN: 9781857141436
East, Jacqueline
Published by Ragged Bears, 1998
This one is an all-round winner - lovely, warm, fun, dotty pictures and an honest approach. Ed the pup is looking forward to the baby, but then mum disappears, and when she returns with a new sister, he discovers that babies take lots of care and there is less time for Ed. But when his friend Elsie is careless with the baby, it is Ed who saves and defends her. He comes to terms with the inevitable and learns that 'although she may annoy him sometimes, he loves his sister very much'. Short, clear sentences and large-ish print.
Age: 2+
