Synopsis
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''.
