I had known that Danielle Steel had written two series for children. (My cousin bought me a copy of Martha's Best Friend when I was in kindergarten.) Why she didn't continue I don't pretend to know. A sweet, innocent story brimming with wonder. I would read this to a child I loved at bedtime.

A great book for kids.

Cute and adorable.

This is--quite literally--the only Danielle Steel book I have ever finished. I cannot stand her adult books at all.

Max is used to being an only child, so the news of his mother to be having a baby frightens him, instead of cheering him up. He doesn't like his playroom being made into a nursery for the baby. He doesn't want to have to share all his toys and clothes with another child. But, when the twins are born, he is just as happy and excited as everyone else is about their arrival.
