Sophie and the New Baby

Sophie likes to play with her rag doll, but then her mother tells her the big, important secret. “Soon you’ll have a real live person to play with. We’re going to have a new baby.” Sophie likes this idea, but the baby takes so long to arrive that she sometimes forgets all about it. When her new brother is finally born, he’s quite a disappointment. He can’t play with Sophie, and he needs Sophie’s mom and dad all the time. Worst of all, Mom and Dad seem to like him a lot. One day, Sophie shouts at the sky, “I don’t want that baby anymore!”
