Lily and the new baby ISBN: 9781903012512
Published by Cat's Whiskers, 2001
Lily resents everything about new sister Grace, and she is old enough to articulate her dislike. She has even resented her mum's pregnancy, and when grandma rabbit collects her from school to say the baby is on the way, Lily wants nothing to do with it. The soft-edged chalk illustrations show very clearly Lily's feelings and her gradual acceptance of Grace. Lily is a determined little rabbit, and she accepts the baby only on her own terms. A useful story from the point of view of a jealous older child.
