Babies Ruin Everything

A Heartwarming and Hilarious Tale of Sibling Love

Meet the big sister who didn’t want to be a big sister – not even a little. Babies Ruin Everything is a laugh-out-loud picture book that captures the frustration, humour, and eventual warmth that come with the arrival of a new baby in the family.

Plot Summary:

When a new baby arrives, chaos ensues. The baby can’t stand on one foot, throw a Frisbee, or whistle like big-head Benny Hogarth can! In fact, the baby seems to ruin everything, from messing up her room to drooling on her toys and even ruining her birthday plans. It’s clear to the spunky big sister that the baby is a wrecking ball in her life.

But as the story unfolds, the big sister realises that the baby is just that – a baby. Maybe, just maybe, she is the one who needs to adjust. This funny and sweet story shows how the big sister learns that the baby might not be ruining everything after all – he just needs a little love and care from his big sister.
