Inside the story
The love we receive can become the love we give.
Ace was once the smallest one in the house. His gentle big sister, Bailey, taught him how to wait, watch, protect, make room, stay calm, and notice when someone needed help. When Bailey goes home to a place Ace cannot follow, the house feels different, and he misses the one who always knew what to do.
Then Prince arrives—tiny, white, fast, and full of energy. Ace is not sure he wants a little brother, but Prince needs someone to show him the rules, help him feel safe, and make room for him in the family.
As Ace remembers Bailey's lessons, he discovers that big brothers notice. This tender picture book explores love, loss, change, emotional resilience, and becoming the kind of big brother someone else needs.
