Publisher's Synopsis
This is a wonderful story about a cheerful and curious young boy named Victor and the adventures of his growing family. Victor learns a valuable lesson about life and love and discovers the special bond between siblings as they welcome his baby brothers into their family.
It is written in first person from the main character, Victor's, perspective and starts on the day that he is born. It follows his upbringing and gives us a glimpse into the loving home into which he was born and the relationship that he has with his parents. The story continues with how he handles the news of becoming a big brother for the first time, the types of questions that came to his mind upon hearing the news, as it does to many children in a similar situation, and how his parents choose to address those questions. His mother has a particularly heart-warming answer to his question regarding whether there will be enough love for the new baby, since they already have so much love for each other.
Victor and his baby brother, Andy, end up becoming the best of friends. Victor is then presented with the opportunity to provide the same answer to Andy when they receive the news that they are both going to big brothers to another baby.
The rhythmic and rhyming patterns in which this book is written makes it fun to read and listen to for both children and adults alike. The illustrations are eye-catching and allows the reader to put themselves within the story. Most importantly, it teaches several important lessons about life, love, brotherhood, and the adventures that we have within a family unit.
