From School Library Journal:
PreS. With the same pizzazz she displayed in In the Rain with Baby Duck (1995) and Baby Duck and the Bad Eyeglasses (1996, both Candlewick), Baby Duck now struggles with second-child syndrome. Her parents, completely taken up with the new sibling, Hot Stuff, are totally unaware of their older child's left-out feelings. Once again, Grampa comes to the rescue and makes Baby Duck feel good about herself, allowing her to accept her new sister. The fact that Baby is the older sibling may confuse some youngsters, but they will relate to Barton's generous images and soft colors. A predictable story in the sibling-rivalry genre, the book can be used with Kevin Henkes's Julius, the Baby of the World (Greenwillow, 1990), Martha Alexander's When the New Baby Comes, I'm Moving Out (Dial, 1992), Brigitte Weninger's Will You Mind the Baby, Davy? (North-South, 1997), and Carol D. Shields's I Wish My Brother Was a Dog (Dutton, 1997); for those seeking an alternative, Tomie dePaola's The Baby Sister (Putman, 1996) features a child looking forward to the new baby's arrival.?Barbara Elleman, Marquette University, Milwaukee, WI
