“I mark a circle on the calendar. I have ten days and nine nights.”
That's how this lovely story about a sister-to-be opens. She marks the calendar every day for ten days awaiting the arrival of new new sister from Korea. Her mother has already left for Korea to meet and bring home the latest addition to the family.
As she waits for mom's return, she performs one activity each day in preparation. There are paper hearts to cut and new furniture to buy. Even a lesson in how to hold a baby. When mom and the new baby come home, there are big smiles all around.
This is a sweet, almost wordless story that's all the joy of expanding a family as told by a very happy sibling-in-training. For families thinking about "going for one more", this is the perfect introduction.
