Book Review - A Baby Sister For Frances

I have been reading A Baby Sister For Frances this week to my daughter and enjoying it very much. Russell Hoban really knows how to capture the spirit of a child in his books. In A Baby Sister For Frances, Frances decides she is fed up with sharing her mother's time with her new baby sister. As she leaves for school in the morning she declares that she will be running away after dinner that evening. Her mother makes no big deal about it as Frances prepares to runaway.

I love where Frances decides to go and how it all works out in the end. This book is a classic and will be around for a long time due to the simplicity of the story. Once again, it is fun to read because you can adjust your voice to speak for father, mother and Frances. The songs Frances comes up with are always my favorite parts of the stories. If you have not yet read this book you are missing out on a great children's storybook.
