There’s a new baby on Wish Pond Road, and Mallory has had all the baby talk she can take! Mallory wants to be excited about Mary Ann and Joey’s new brother, Charlie. But she can’t help wondering what life will be like now that there’s a baby around.

Is there a bright side to the changes that baby Charlie brings?
