This 'new baby' book contains photographs of children & their 'new' siblings - an enormous strength. As a result, my two year old seemed to identify better with this book than other books on this subject. However, the text was too advanced for him & quite lengthy in places, so I had to make up my own version (while scanning what they had written to see if there was anything pertinent) which I found a little irritating. I suspect it is written for an older child. I would recommend it though, as it covers many aspects of having a new sibling & did help prepare my son for his sister's birth.
Good for younger children, too! - By: , 26 Mar 1999
I bought this book for my 2 year old as we prepared for his new sibling. Some of the text is a bit too much for such a young child, but the photos lend themselves to telling a story that children of any age can understand. He liked to see the pictures of tiny babies, & also liked to hear how the older children felt about the babies. I think this book reallly helped him to know what to expect. We have lots of "new baby" books, but I feel this one is superior - photographs rather than illustrations reallly help young children know what to expect.
