Hello
I am reddy Red Squirrel. Nikki has written a book about my jealous feelings when I got a new sibling.
My Story
This book is from the reminiscences of Reddy Red Squirrel who hoped and dreamed of having a sibling. Reddy describes her own story:
“This is a story about when I really wanted a sibling, wanted somebody to play with so much! And one day I got my wish! My own adoptive parents brought home a newer, younger sibling.
"Soon after Little Grey Squirrel came to live with us, I felt disappointed. It seemed that having a little brother was not exactly what I had hoped.
"My parents noticed I was feeling disappointed, frustrated, and angry. They recognized that I really felt very jealous. They kindly asked me about my feelings. They helped name my jealousy. Jealous of the attention and the seeming importance of the new little brother."
