 Absolutely delightful for the AP family November 17, 2005
87 out of 87 found this review helpful
One of the very few books I have ever seen that shows the mom nursing, while the dad changes diapers and the little child (boy I think) helps. Then the dad goes for a walk in the Bjorn, does the cooking, and everyone looks happy, not worried or uncomfortable that a new baby has arrived like other books sometimes portray. TRULY a wonderful book. Great that it doesn't have words, much nicer to make up your own.
Nice wordless boardbook for families with new babies March 13, 2006
49 out of 50 found this review helpful
This is a short board book about a toddler experiencing life with a new baby. Most of the pictures are peaceful watercolors, a few I thought were too busy for small children to process what is happening in the story. But overall, it's a nice gift to an expectant family as it doesn't put words into the mouths of the older sibling ("I feel left out. I hate the baby." blah blah blah like so many other "new baby" books do.) but rather allows the reader to adapt to the actual child's situation. (Maybe there is a child out there that is excited to have a new sibling? What a concept!) Bonus: breastfeeding is pictured twice, discreetly. Mom nurses the baby while Dad fixes dinner and so on. My 2.5 yo found this a fun book to page through on her own as she awaits her own new baby in the family.
This book really helped my toddler understand... November 4, 2003

This book really helped my toddler understand what was going to happen. He was only 23 months when his little sister was born so his language skills weren't very developed. In the last few months of my pregnancy he would look at this book over and over and over again and you could see understanding dawning on his little face. On day, he was "reading" it and then, all of a sudden, dropped it, ran over to me, and gave me a really big hug. I think that was his moment of truth, lol. Two thumbs up!
Respectful and Realistic September 29, 2002

We loved that this book depicted relationships in a respectful and realistic manner. The older boy helps out Mum and Dad, plays alone with baby, has time playing quietly by himself and at the end of the day when baby is in bed, has some quality time alone with Mum and Dad reading a book. We also liked how Dad is actively involved eg he cooks dinner while Mum nurses baby.Although it had no words, our 1.5 year old twins loved pointing out and naming objects that they knew and of telling us what was happening. For example:
"poo" (baby getting nappy/diaper changed)
"wah, wah" (baby crying)
"shh" (baby sleeping) We got a number of new baby books, some good some not. This is one that we'd recommend.
 Disappointed because there is no text on pages June 11, 2005
16 out of 23 found this review helpful
This book is wonderfully illustrated and shows important scenes like mommy's doctor appointments, buying/preparing for baby at home, decorating baby's room, seeing mommy and daddy leave for hospital while older child stays at home and finally on the back cover meeting baby in hospital but it has no words. I assume the lack of text is meant to encourage discussion between parent and child but explanations aren't holding my 18 month old boy's attention. Maybe it would be better for an older child who can participate in the discussion. For now I can hope that some connections are being made in his mind.
