• Page 6 - More picture illustrations
• Page 7 - "This is our new baby," everyone said to Mike.  "Her name is Savanah."  Mike could hardly believe it.  "Wow!" Mike said right out loud.  "I'm Savanah's big brother!  I wonder what this is going to be like."
• Page 8 - From that day on, Mike began to find out what it was like to have a new baby sister in his family.  What Mike first noticed was that everyone seemed very happy.  Mike also noticed that everyone seemed very busy, too.

• Page 10 - More picture illustrations
• Page 11 - There was always a flurry of activity around Savanah.  Friends and relatives and neighbors were dropping in all the time.  Everyone wanted to come for a visit.  And everyone wanted to see the new baby.
• Page 12 - Savanah was very nice to look at!  But she wasn't able to talk or walk or play.  She wasn't even able to sit up by herself.  There were only two things she could do!  She could sleep, and she could cry.  Little Savanah was pretty good at sleeping, and she was very good at crying.

• Page 14 - Another picture illustration
• Page 15 - Savanah took a lot of looking after.  She had to be washed in warm, soapy water: warm, but not too warm; soapy, but not too soapy.  She had to be dried with a soft; fluffy towel: soft, but not too soft; fluffy, but not too fluffy.  She had to be dressed in special clothes and fed special food.  And everyone had to be very quiet, so that little Savanah could get to sleep.
• Page 16 - It wasn't just friends and relatives and neighbors who wanted to see Savanah.  There were doctors and nurses, too.  They wanted to have a look at her just like everyone else.  They even had special gadgets for listening to her heart, her lungs, and all the other things inside her.

• Page 18 - Another picture illustration
• Page 19 - Mike wondered if Savanah sometimes just wanted to be left alone.  Everyone was always making such a fuss over her!  Actually, Mike sometimes wished that everyone would leave Savanah alone.  "Maybe they should make a fuss about me for a while," Mike thought.
• Page 20 - Sometimes Savanah was taken for a walk.  She was wrapped in a special little blanket, and there was a special little buggy for her to ride in.  And wherever they went, it was baby Savanah that the people wanted to see.  "Oh, what rosy little cheeks!" they would say.  "And, what pretty little eyes, and darling little fingers!" "People sure do like babies," Mike thought to himself.

• Page 23 - Baby Savanah was given all sorts of special presents, just because she was a baby: beautiful flowers to brighten up the house, big fluffy teddy bears to watch her as she slept, and all kinds of toys!   There were toys to shake, toys to stack and toys to roll.  Mike's toys were mostly old ones that he had played with for years.
• Page 24 - It seemed that no one had much time for Mike.  "Let's go to the park and play," Mike said.   "We're sorry, Mike. We're busy with the baby."  "Will you read me a book?" Mike asked.  Maybe later, since the baby needs me just now."  "Could we play a game together?"  Mike questioned.  "That's a good idea, but the baby is a little fussy."
• Page 25 - Picture illustrations
• Page 26 - More picture illustrations
• Page 27 - One morning as he was waking up, Mike had an idea.  "When I was a baby," he thought to himself, "everyone made fuss over me." Mike thought that maybe he should become a baby again.   "If I were a baby," he said to himself, "Savanah wouldn't be the only one they would fuss about!"
• Page 28 - Mike thought about doing what baby Savanah did.  He thought about lying on his back, and crying the way Savanah did.  "Would I get lots of hugs and kisses if I acted like that?"  Mike wondered...."I don't think so," he said to himself.  "And I think that I would feel pretty silly."

• Page 31 - At play time, Mike wondered about sitting in the middle of the floor and making funny little noises the way babies sometimes do.  But it was just too embarrassing for Mike!  After all, he was Savanah's big brother!  Instead, he picked out a few books and a few toys from the toy box.  They weren't brand new, but they were his favorites and he had lots of fun with them.
• Page 32 - "Being a baby is fine for Savanah," Mike said to himself.  "But I'm happy being a big brother!  And when baby Savanah gets a little older, we'll have lots of fun playing together.   And I think she's going to like having me for a big brother!"

• Page 35- "There's a time to be a baby, and there's a time to be big.  And every time can be happy in its own way," Mike thought.  "I'm glad that this is Savanah's time to be a baby.  And I'm glad that she has come to live with us and we will grow up together!"
