When Tom's baby brother arrives on the scene, Tom hates the way everyone makes a fuss. The new baby takes so much of mum and dad's time that there is none left for stories or going to the park. Tom is incensed, and when he finally shouts that he hates the baby and runs and crawls into the crib that used to be his, mum and dad sit down with a book of photographs and show him that he used to be just like the baby. The baby will grow and cry less and learn to walk and talk just like he did. 'We can't go back to the way things were...we have to keep going on to new things...just like you did.' Most of all, Tom is pleased because he can have sausages and chips and the baby can't! Warm, bold, chalky pictures show us a loving family coping with a familiar problem.
