The Big Sister's Tale by Margaret Ryan
One day Mum asked me if I'd like a little brother. 'No,' I said. 'I'd rather have a pony.' But a few months later I got a little brother anyway. Kate's never been a big sister before. And she's not sure she wants to start now. As her baby brother Tom grows up, everybody thinks he is sweet - except Kate. Perhaps the family holiday is the time to put him in his place?
