Since the Baby Came offers young readers exactly that assurance through playful scenes written in sixteen poems. These charming verses amuse and reassure big brothers and sisters as they adjust to life with the huggable, fully lovable, wonderful--but nonrefundable--bundle of joy who has turned the family upside down!" -- Back cover
