The Middle Kid
By Steven WeinbergPublisher Description
A story about the wonderfully challenging realities of being a family's middle kid.
Readers experience a day in the life of a middle kid, and all the highs and lows of a life in-between. When you're the middle kid, you're never the first nor the last to do anything. You're not the tallest or the smallest; you're babysitting one sibling but teased by the other. Stuck between a bossy older brother and a naive younger sister, Middle Kid feels left out of two worlds. But even if—and maybe especially because—it's always overlooked, this kid's own world is just as big and important as his siblings'.
• From author-illustrator Steven Weinberg—a middle kid himself!
• Gently funny and richly detailed
• Starting in the morning and ending at night, readers experience a full day in Middle Kid's shoes
Middle children have classically been sandwiched between the achievements of the older sibling and the needs of the younger one—The Middle Kid gives them a time to shine!
• Perfect for beginning readers
• A great empathy read
• Fans of comical books about family

“Very short chapters in this book take you through a day in the life of a middle child. The chapters just stop in the middle, like he's put in a trunk by his older brother and you wonder what is going to happen, but then you are off to the next chapter. This book is heavily illustrated but not really a picture book. Not sure which age I'd put this at actually, maybe very early readers who are looking for something like a chapter book.”
