Little Pip liked it when her family was just three. But now the egg seems to be all her parents can think about & Pip can't understand why. Her parents are very excited about the egg & tell her this new change will make their family "just right". But Little Pip isn't so sure...she thinks her family is just right the way it is & a boring old egg can't make it any better! All through the long, harsh winter Pip's parents look after the egg, keeping it warm & safe. Little Pip learns to help as much as she can, even though she still doesn't know what all the fuss is about...until, one day the egg cracks open, & Little Pip meets her new baby brother for the first time! An adorable & reassuring story, perfect for introducing the idea of a new baby coming into the family.
