I’m Your Peanut Butter Big Brother

Written by Selina Alko
Illustrated by Selina Alko

This is a cute little book about a boy who is wondering what his new baby brother or sister will be like. “I’m your peanut butter big-brother-to-be.” The boy is bi-racial, a “blend from semisweet dark Daddy chocolate bar” and “strawberry cream Mama’s milk.” He ponders the possibilities.

I love the way this book uses metaphors to describe all the different possibilities! Read more >>
