Leo Becomes a Brother!
Pauline Martin

Leo didn’t decide to be a big brother, so when his parents tell him they’re expecting a baby, for Leo, it’s NO!

As the months pass by, the baby to come already takes too much space in Leo’s life, and the adults ask him ridiculous questions. Will he lend the baby his toys? Of course not. Is he cooking for the baby? That’s a clear loud NO. By the way, Maya asks at kindergarten, will it be a little sister? No. A little brother, then? No. But when the time comes to meet the newborn baby, Leo has no objections anymore: yes, he is the big brother of small baby Arthur!
