Description

From the celebrated author of Sarah, Plain and Tall, Patricia MacLachlan, comes another humorous and poignant early middle grade novel. My Life Begins! explores how life begins for Jacob when his triplet sisters are born, and how siblings get to know each other as time, and love, evolve.

Jacob is nine years old when his life changes.

He wants a litter of puppies. But instead his parents have a different surprise. Jacob will be an older brother soon. And there wont be only one new baby. There will be three! When the triplets are born, Jacob thinks puppies are cuter. The babies look identical to him and he gives them a name: the Trips.

For a school science project, Jacob decides to study the Trips. It feels like magic as they begin to smile, talk, and grow. Slowly, he gets to know each of them. They call his mother Mama and his father Da. But what will they call him? One day, one of the Trips calls him Jay.

As each of the triplets become unique and more special with each day, Jacob starts to wonder if the Trips is still a good name for them. They arent puppies, or a bunch of bananas, and they arent just the Trips anymore. What should he call them that will show what they mean to him? Can he figure out their forever name? And will he ever get a puppy?
