One afternoon, Dennis came home from school and did not find his mother. “Where is mom?” he asked his grandmother. “She will be home soon, dear!” she answered. When Dennis’ mother came home, she was carrying a little white bundle with her. It was Dennis’ baby-brother. “Look, Dennis! This is your baby-brother!” said Dennis’ father. Since the baby arrived, Dennis realised that his mother did not bathe him or tuck him to bed. He did not like this at all. One day, he got so angry that when no one was looking, he yelled at the baby, “Why don’t you go away!” The baby started crying and his mother heard what he said. She called Dennis to her side, kissed him and said, “Dennis, you know that I love you. The baby is small and needs me. As his elder brother, you must help me take care of him and love him.” Dennis understood what his mother meant. From then on, he spent time playing with his baby-brother.
