# Charlie and the New Baby - Hardcover

by **Ree Drummond** (Author), **Diane de Groat** (Illustrator)

**Ree Drummond, the #1 _New York Times_ bestselling author of the Pioneer Woman Cooks series of books, and her lovable hound Charlie share the joys and frustrations of welcoming a new little one in _Charlie and the New Baby_.**

With expressive illustrations by Diane deGroat, a delicious recipe from Ree Drummond, and the hilarious antics of Charlie, this hardcover picture book is an excellent gift.

There's nothing that makes Charlie's soul rejoice more than naps and bacon. But when his daily routine of eating and sleeping is interrupted by a new baby calf, Abigail, Charlie is not happy.

Things go from bad to worse when Charlie sees everyone rubbing Abigail's belly instead of his; feeding her instead of him; and tucking Abigail in at the end of the day--in Charlie's bed Will Charlie be able to adjust to the new addition?

A sweet and funny follow-up to the _New York Times_ bestselling picture book _Charlie the Ranch Dog_ from Ree Drummond, the Pioneer Woman.

### Back Jacket

It sure is nice to be King of the Ranch. Just ask Charlie! His days are filled with belly rubs, bacon, and Mama's special tender loving care.

But then his daily routine is interrupted when a new baby shows up! All of a sudden, everyone's attention is on her, and not on Charlie. They tuck _her_ in, feed her dinner, and give _her_ their tender loving care.

What is a ranch dog to do?

In this heartwarming tale by Ree Drummond--The Pioneer Woman herself--Charlie discovers that even with a new baby at home, there's enough love to go around and that being a big brother is an even bigger job than being King of the Ranch. (Well . . . almost as big!)
