What is Being the Biggest about?

When a new baby arrives, one little girl becomes the oldest, the big one and the biggest little. She loves helping, teaching and showing her sibling the world. But being the biggest is not always easy. Starting school and facing new challenges make her wish she could feel small again. With Mum’s understanding and a warm cuddle, she learns that growing up does not mean knowing everything. It is all right to ask for help, share worries and still need comfort.
