Cal's New Sister (2024)
Meeting a new sister is a big event.
Cal's world changes when his baby sister arrives. Building a relationship is not always easy, especially when the new sister does not seem to be interested. The book describes a big brother’s attempts to gain his new sister’s love and affection and the magic that occurs in sibling relationships. Experience the heartwarming tale of sibling connection and the power of finding joy and love.

I love the book. It is simple and very easy to read no matter what age the reader. The sweet and gentle illustrations will help guide the older child in their telling of the story.
