A three-year-old named Lee defends the abortion of his sister in a new childrens book by an author with her own ghost sister.
Sister Apple, Sister Pig by Mary Walling Blackburn focuses on an adult topic: abortion. The story follows Lee as he (or she, as the author stressed) searches for his sister who might be an apple, a pig, or somewhere in a tree. Lee later decides Sister is a happy ghost! and explicitly says hes glad Sister isnt around to inconvenience his parents.

Make no question, it’s so that mommy can have more time for mommy.
Said in the context of the book passage and our reactions to it.

Maybe the boy would someday be in a position to turn Mama into a Happy Ghost? Maybe when she's old and breaks a hip? I'm sure Sister Apple/Pig will be on hand to escort "Mom" to the Down Elevator.

More than a little sick to me. I’ve seen books dealing with adoption or the death of a sibling but I cannot imagine under what circumstances one would want to buy this book for a child.

Will there be a pop-up version of the book? I can’t imagine what that would be like.

I got it from the context of the headline, that was enough to make me feel sick, and I won't be reading the rest. Abortion is Holocaust. Thanks Baynative.

Stupid and brutal. As if even a child couldn't figure out that if Mama could turn Sister into a ghost, she could turn you into a ghost, too. "Mom always did like you best."

The disconnect here is just Orwellian.
