As a practicing super hero, Tom is proud of the things he can do.  However, he is not sure how he feels about his new baby brother, Nathaniel, AKA the Blob.  The Blob receives a lot of attention and Tom’s super hero talent of invisibility happens now with no effort.  As relatives show up to see the new baby, each one mentions how cute he is and that they could just eat him up.  What?!  Now as the protective older brother, Tom offers cookies and shows off his tricks to get their minds off nibbling on the Blob.  One day his mom tells Tom they are having a party so everyone can meet the baby.  Eat the baby?  Tom gets worried and decides to hide the Blob.  He is much relieved to discover dinner is really chicken and mashed potatoes with apple pie for dessert.  And the Blob, AKA Nathaniel, now notices his awesome older brother with a huge smile.  Cute “new baby” story which also introduces idioms.  Many older siblings may recognize similar thoughts and behaviors.  Bright acrylic illustrations add a touch of humor as Tom imagines different scenarios.
