He is a spunky kid who enjoys discovering the world around him and playing with his big sister, Anastasia. This book is an easy ready and I feel it has no purpose to it other than pure enjoyment. It's a cute story, but doesn't have a real plot. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Personal Thoughts: Each chapter is like a short story. There is no overall plot or problem to the story, but there are minor problems within each chapter. It was a cute, interesting read especially since I am currently pregnant and it was from the perspective of a baby who is not being understood because all he can do is cry, but definitely not suspenseful.
