Review

This is the story of a youngest child Henry, whose family has doted on him since birth. One day Henry decides he wants to do things for himself, such as brush his teeth, pick out his clothes, and make his own play date. His parents and siblings feel they have no purpose anymore until Henry asks them what they would like to do. They all find there are many things they would like to do such as painting, typing, dancing and they all seem to adjust. Henry finds that he still needs to have his family tuck him into bed at night and they all oblige. This is a very cute book and the illustrations go very well with the text.

Overall Book Score: very good
