A Big Brother Story About a New Baby
Leo Is Going to Be a Big Brother
Mira Selden
A red scarf that is much too long, a blue chair just his size, and the best seat of all: Mama's lap. Then a baby is coming.
A gentle story for children who are about to become big brothers and big sisters, about the worry that there won't be room any more, and a mother's answer that there always is.

There's Always Room Draft lyrics
Leo's song is a draft we are still working on: the book's refrain, sung to Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
The words
There's room, Leo, always room, hum, hum, honey, honey moon. Big and little, side by side, in the chair so warm and wide. There's room, Leo, always room, sleep, my little bears, sleep soon.
