The Zebra Wall
What's The Zebra Wall About
The Vorlob family is getting ready for the new baby, soon to arrive. The preparations include painting a mural in the baby’s nursery and making a list of possible names. Since ten-year-old Adine already has four younger sisters, she is used to the routine. This time, however, the routine is broken – in more ways than one. The biggest change is that Aunt Irene will be staying with the Vorlobs until Adine’s mother is back on her feet. Aunt Irene arrives, as does the baby, but nothing else goes quite as expected. Especially for Adine!
