Customer Reviews

Great picture book for parents and young children to share

I reviewed this book for a college course in children's literature several years ago. It immediately struck me as a useful tool for parents when they have one child and another on the way. I thought it to be a very good way for the parents to teach the child the joys and changes that life will bring when the new baby arrives. The photographs are cute, the poems fun, and the time it takes to get through the book consists of only a couple of minutes. This book is also great for just showing a child how much he or she has grown.
