Customer Reviews

Great book!

I read about this book in a parenting magazine and checked it out from the library. My 4-year-old son and his 3-year-old sister absolutely loved it! They laughed all through the book, making me read it over and over. Now they both can recite it, and even change the words to "mail Amelia (their baby sister) to the moooooon!" This book is so cute, we are going to buy a copy for ourselves!

Funny!

We purchased 2 books, one for each of our children's families. I did have a bit of a concern as one of my grandchildren did not need any more ideas on what to do to her brand new baby sister. In our second family, our 2 grandsons are awaiting the arrival of their new baby sister. Our daughter-in-law does a hilarious job when reading aloud to her sons, changing some of the words, but exactly mimicking the cries of her own boys. They love hearing the story over and over! Everyone loves this book!

A big hit

My 2 year old loves this book. He gets a great kick out of the emotions shown in the drawings and the fact that the older kid is drawn very realistically.

Nice illustrations and a very fun story

Having a little brother can be such a bother...oh where will it end? But, when looked at just right, little brothers can be a lot of fun, too. This is a fun book, with nice illustrations and a very fun story. I liked how the book teaches a lesson to children who get a new sibling. And, I must say that my four-year-old also liked the book. Well, that's good enough for me; I like it when she finds books she can make friends with. We both highly recommend this book!

Big brother Will loves reading about his little brother Harry

This book came just at the right time. Will (will be 3 in August, 2008) just got his glasses so is starting to read. His little brother Harry will be 1 in July. Will loves all the things he can do with Harry like putting him in the trash...he runs around the house expounding that he is going to flush Harry down the toilet and laughs. The best kids book ever for my grandson.
