About this title

From School Library Journal:

PreKindergarten-Grade 3-- Ziefert covers all aspects of a new baby in terms most preschoolers will understand. The text is simple; the appealing ink and watercolor illustrations feature anthropomorphized dogs. She begins with the logical discussion of why parents might want another baby and then offers the range of emotions children might feel in addition to posing questions they might have. A straightforward explanation of "how babies are made" is included. Dos and don'ts provide a lighthearted collection of ideas to help older siblings entertain and get along with the new baby. There are many other books on this subject, but new ones are always welcome as each takes such a different approach. A frank, breezy discussion of topics related to the arrival of a new baby. --Dorcas Hand, Annunciation Orthodox School, Houston
