Too mean-spirited

I really like Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse, and I also love other books by Kevin Henkes. But my husband and I agreed that Lilly comes across as too harsh and bratty in this book. I don't like exposing my four-year-old to Lilly's cruel comments towards her brother. I don't want him to view her behavior as acceptable and humorous for fear that he will try it out on his younger sister.


Awesome book - fabulous gift!

This book is the perfect gift for a child that has a new baby at his or her house! The story line describes the excitement surrounding the soon-to-be birth of a baby. THEN the inconvenience, jealousy, and frustration felt after the baby actually arrives.
I've given this book to several "big brothers" and "big sisters" when I've sent a baby gift.

The riotously funny Lilly, last seen in Chester's Way (Greenwillow), thinks her new baby brother, Julius, is disgusting -- if he was a number, he would be zero. But when Cousin Garland dares to criticize Julius, Lilly bullies her into loudly admiring Julius as the baby of the world.Lilly knows her baby brother is nothing but dreadful -- until she claims him for her own. "Henkes displays a deep understanding of sibling rivalry and a child's fragile self-esteem....Lilly is a superb and timely heroine." -- Publishers Weekly. "
