Sneak peek of the story: "Violet was so overwhelmed, she felt like crying. The baby was coming now! It was so exciting…but she knew it was very hard for Mama Green. She felt so many things all at once. “You’re almost there!” Carrie quietly cheered her on. “The baby’s head is out. One more push and you’ll be holding your baby!” Mama Green’s breath quickened and caught again…and suddenly, the baby was all the way out! A flurry of activity happened all at once. Papa Green reached down and scooped the baby up out of the water, and the baby began to cry. Mama Green flipped herself back over so she could lie back against the side of the tub. She was crying and so was Papa Green. Papa Green handed her the baby, and she curled it against her chest and held it close. Now Mama Green’s eyes were open, and she looked so happy. Her breath did not quicken anymore. She smiled at Violet. “The baby’s here!” she said jubilantly. The first light of dawn was starting to peek through the windows. Soon, everyone would be awake and would come to see the new baby." *The Green Family and the New Baby Activity Book *is a digital download and printable contains coloring sheets, word searches, mazes, crosswords, and other word games and visual art.
