Baby sisters can be so annoying!

That’s what Max thinks. Max needs his daddy’s help—right now!—to bake a surprise Passover birthday cake for his mommy. But as baby Trudy fusses instead of napping, and Daddy tries to settle her down, their time to bake is slipping away.

With her warm and pithy storytelling, Michelle Edwards captures the moment in a child’s life when he realizes that he has the power to do things on his own.
