Babies Are So Cute ! Jessica Wakefield loves her neighbors' new baby girl. She and her twin sister, Elizabeth, think it would be wonderful to have a little sister of their own. And when Mrs. Wakefield begins to buy baby clothes and things for a baby's room, the twins wonder if their mother is pregnant! Just in case, Jessica decides to practice being a big sister by baby-sitting newborn Jenny. That's when she finds out that taking care of a baby isn't all fun and games!

The Wakefields’ next-door neighbours, Mr. and Mrs. DeVito, have just had their first baby. Her name is Jennifer—Jenny for short—and she has blue eyes and blonde hair, just like Jessica and Elizabeth. The twins go to the DeVito house to meet her and are so enamoured of her that they start dreaming of a new baby sibling of their own.
At first, they simply plan to try to talk Alice into producing this new baby for them but, after a conversation in class about pregnancy symptoms, Jessica and Elizabeth start to wonder whether their mother might already be pregnant. After all, she has been tired lately and she ate two pickles in one sitting.
Jessica and Elizabeth start to question whether they want a new sibling at all. They realise that they would have less time with their mother if a baby came along, which makes them sad, because everyone knows that the Wakefield twins are meant to be the centre of attention all the time. But Alice has baby wallpaper samples, so she must be pregnant!
Actually, she’s not. The wallpaper is for a project she’s doing for her interior design course and that’s why she’s tired as well. The twins are relieved. Babies are more trouble than they’re worth.
This feels very age-appropriate for the audience for this series, but it also feels extremely generic. Change the names and it could be any two kids wishing for a baby sister. I prefer the books where the twins are more obviously their Sweet Valley selves.
