Story is told from a girls point of view as she grows older (authors craft). Although there is not much diversity, the story does make it seem like her Uncle lives with her, her siblings and parents which is an unregularly family dynamic. ( )

A cute story about the circle of life. A brand new baby finds herself growing up, always being surrounded by "giants". Then one day, she grows up and has a baby of her own and realizes she is now the "giant". Great to teach children that we all start life off as babies, and eventually grow up to be the adults that our parents, grandparents, teachers, etc. are. ( )

This is a wonderful book to use for memories that students are trying to think about. It is also a wonderful way to use the illustrations to get meaning because the author always points out the main character in the pictures.
