Za-za's Baby Brother
by
Lucy Cousins
Illustrator: Lucy Cousins
When Za-za's mum has a baby, it's hard for Za-za not to feel left out.
The baby is always hungry or tired or needs a nappy change and Mum and Dad are both so busy. Even the visitors only seem interested in her new little brother.
When Mum suggests Za-za should cuddle the baby, she is a little sceptical but soon discovers that having a baby brother can be fun and that Mum and Dad have enough love for both of them.
This classic picture book is accompanied by an animated DVD and reading of the story, which is beautifully presented and complements both the text and Lucy Cousins' striking yet simple illustrations.

Maisy, the famous mouse, 'drew herself' one day, when Lucy was doodling various animals on a piece of paper, looking for inspiration, and the first Maisy book was published soon after Lucy left college. Lucy won the Bologna Ragazzi Non-fiction Prize 1997 for Maisy's House and has been Highly Commended for the National Art Illustration Award 1997 for Za Za's Baby Brother, images from which were also used in a publicity campaign by Tommy's, the baby's charity. Jazzy in the Jungle won the Smarties Book Prize in 2002. Hooray for Fish!, published in 2005, is a celebration of life under the sea.
