Does having a new brother or sister make you into MORE than you already are?

Review
PRAISE FOR ONE SPECIAL DAY
* "With a simple interactive text and thoroughly engaging illustrations, this book is a perfect blending of words and pictures. . . . A special book for the special day."―School Library Journal, starred review
PRAISE FOR ONE SPECIAL DAY
"There is no shortage of books for soon-to-be older siblings, but what makes this one stand out is the celebration of all the great things the older sibling already is followed by the welcome addition of a few new roles; the interactive nature of the text begs for child involvement, functioning almost as a large-scale rebus tale in picture book format."―Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books
PRAISE FOR ONE SPECIAL DAY
"Schaefer's device of making the title part animal story, part sibling tale is a winning one. . . . [T]he tone effortlessly slides from raucous and rebellious to quiet and awe-filled (aww-filled too, to be honest) with nary a hitch. . . . In a market glutted with books for newbie brothers and sisters, this is one that stands apart."―Kirkus Reviews
