About the Book
Five-year-old Robin unearths a baby in her sandbox and has a hard time finding anyone willing to take care of it.
Book Synopsis
What in the world is Robin going to do with the baby she finds in her sandbox? "Murmel, murmel, murmel," is all Robin hears coming from a hole in her sandbox. When she reaches down and out pops a baby, she finds herself in a real fix: who will take care of it? Robin's too little! Off she goes, searching her neighborhood for someone who needs a baby. The woman with seventeen cats doesn't want the baby. Nor does the grumpy man by the bus stop. It looks as though all hope is lost, until a friendly truck driver passes by. He offers to trade his truck for the baby--an exchange Robin can't refuse.

Teeny Tiny book
Ridiculously Small book ... ordered a paperback book of one of our daughter's favorite stories from her childhood for her daughter only to get a 3.5 x 3.5 inch book. Looked at the description after receiving it and yes, there in the description was the size of the book, however, who reads "paperback" thinking they are ordering a normal size book and instead receives a book for a dollhouse bookcase instead?
