Summary
Believing his kid brother, Charles, to be nothing more than a pest, Yorick Bede finds himself dependent on Charles when he invents a potion that reduces him to the size of a peanut
Amazon.com description: Product Description:

Yorick Bede has always considered his younger brother Charles a first-rate pain in the pants, and Charles thinks the same of Yorick. One day Yorick plays with his alchemist father's potions, and he accidentally shrinks himself to the size of a cockroach. Now suddenly Charles is the big brother. Though it's tempting to leave Yorick as a shrunken version of himself to teach him a lesson, Charles and the rest of the Bede family protect Yorick and tinker with more and more potions until they find the right one to bring back him back to his normal size.

The Toy Brother is another delightful picture book tale from William Steig.
