Right in the Middle: A story for the middle child who's no longer a baby, but not the oldest either. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798259222632)

Right in the Middle by Laurel Alexandra is a warm, heartfelt picture book that gently explores what it means to be the "in-between" child.
Perfect for families with a middle child-or those about to welcome a new baby-this story follows Lily as she tries to make sense of her place in the family. Her big brother seems so capable and grown-up, while her little sister gets all the help and attention. Caught somewhere in between, Lily begins to wonder where she fits... and who she's supposed to be.
Told through tender, relatable moments and beautifully illustrated scenes, this book gives voice to feelings many children struggle to express-feeling overlooked, unsure, or not quite "big" or "little" enough. It opens the door for meaningful conversations between parents and children about identity, belonging, and being seen.
A reassuring and emotionally supportive read, Right in the Middle helps children understand that they don't have to be the biggest or the smallest to matter-they are important, just as they are.
A thoughtful gift for growing families, this story is especially comforting for:

• Middle children navigating their place
• Children adjusting to a new sibling
• Parents wanting to support big feelings with empathy and connection

Because every child deserves to feel right where they belong and that's a very special place..
