When Cornelius P. Mud meets his baby brother for the first time, he has lots of questions: Can he play, or talk, or walk, or eat pizza? Mum has to admit he can't do any of those things. He can only 'sleep, drink, pee, poop, and cry'. Cornelius would like to 'send him back' and is concerned that mum loves the baby more than she loves him. He is reassured and quite enjoys holding the baby, but it is only at the end that he discovers the one thing the baby is good at: being Cornelius P. Mud's small brother! This is very funny and creative, and the pictures of pigs large and small on highly coloured backgrounds are a treat. Not in any sense a preparation story, it nevertheless acknowledges the fact that noses are often put out of joint by the arrival of a rival for parental affection.
