For Kids and Their Grown-Ups: “Albert’s ABC: A Sibling Story” by Henry Cole
Review by Laura Frantz, collection development librarian
Veteran children’s author Henry Cole presents a clever spin on sibling relationships in this funny and relatable tale. Using the alphabet and a bit of wordplay, Cole showcases all the feelings happening for big brother Albert and baby brother Baxter. Luckily, Grandma is there to soothe and save the day. The expressive illustrations and accompanying words pop off the page and bring the story to life. A gem of a picture book.
