Synopsis
Five-year-old Elisa has an older brother and a new baby brother, but her elderly neighbor says the middle is the best, just like the filling in a sandwich.
In this beginning chapter book, Elisa, who also appears in such books as "Russell & Elisa," becomes the middle child when her parents bring home her new baby brother. Trying to take her new position of responsibility seriously, Elisa unfortunately has a lot of misadventures. How was she supposed to know that you don't clean the fish tank with soap and water or that Russell said he needs to "catch up on his homework" not that he needs ketchup on his homework? Illustrated with pencil drawings.

Publisher's Note
Elisa helps her brother Russell--with disastrous results--and now she is determined to find a way to make it up to him.
Elisa's always ready to play games with her older brother Russell. She even lets Russell decide which ones. And she tries to be helpful, too. But sometimes Elisa's helping out doesn't go exactly as planned—like when she helps Russell "ketchup" on his homework or gives his fish a bubble bath. Can she find a way to make it up to him? "Should delight kids who want to visit more with Russell's family." —Booklist

Industry reviews
K-Gr 3 This latest book featuring Elisa and Russell Michaels will be welcomed by friends of these contemporary, middle-class, New York City kids. The big news this time is the addition of a new baby to the family. Elisa really comes into her own as she tries hard to be a good sister to both of her brothers. Unfortunately, five-year-old girls don't always make the best choices. Fortunately, her misadventures lead to humor and to a good time for young readers. Each of the six chapters tells a complete story; this makes the book episodic, but also gives young readers a feeling of satisfaction when they finish each one. The writing is consistently lively and natural, with occasional challenging words thrown in appropriately. Hoban's charming pencil drawings appear throughout. The titles in this series can be read individually, but youngsters will enjoy watching the characters grow and mature from book to book. The mistakes Elisa makes are totally in character, and readers will gleefully keep a step ahead of her and predict the results. Hurwitz is successful at describing the sacrifices siblings make for one another, and the love and pride they share. Darcy Schild, Schwegler Elementary School, Lawrence, KS
