When a new goat and her kid join the barnyard, Clyde (star of A Crow of His Own ) is jealous of the amount of attention the kid is getting, especially from Roberta, the motherly goose who had always been Clyde's ally. On top of that, Clyde's now being admonished for his loud crowing, which wakes the kid. Clyde's response is to crow louder and more frequently to wake the baby up. All gets resolved after a heart-to-heart with wise Roberta. Throughout the story, the cartoon-style watercolor illustrations show Farmer Jay and Farmer Kevin, both white, getting ready for their own soon-to-be adopted baby, whom they bring home at the end of the book. The subtle visual story about a gay-parented family runs parallel to the funny, pun-filled barnyard story that also is about adjusting to change and making space for a new baby. (Ages 3-6)
