What Baby Needs
It's a very special time when your family is waiting for a new little one to join them. This comforting book will help children get ready for that new baby and understand how they can help too. Side notes give parents some discussion ideas for talking about the simpler text of the picture book. Lighthearted, full-color cartoon illustrations show a happy family interacting with the new baby: mom nursing, both mom and dad wearing a baby sling, baby sleeping near the parent's bed, and more. Sweet reassurance with no sibling rivalry—rather the positive focus is on their new role as big brother or sister, what the older child can do that the baby can't, and how to make friends with the baby. By Dr. William Sears, popular pediatrician. I heartily recommend this loving book. Hardcover, 32 pages for ages 3 through 10 years. |
