About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is struggling to share the spotlight or feeling resentful of a younger sibling's constant needs. It is particularly helpful for kids approaching their own double-digit milestones who feel like they should be 'big' now, yet still crave parental attention. The story follows Jeremy, whose tenth birthday takes a back seat when his brother Oliver goes missing. Through this crisis, Jeremy navigates the complicated mix of frustration, guilt, and genuine love that defines sibling relationships. It is a gentle, realistic look at growing up and realizing that being a 'big kid' means balancing your own expectations with the unpredictability of family life. Parents will appreciate how it validates a child's disappointment without shaming them for their feelings.
