When Mommy told Kelly she would be getting a baby brother Kelly thought a new baby was wonderful news.

Now she is not so sure. She is sure that Mommy and Daddy don’t love her anymore.

That baby takes all the time, he cries and Kelly is not one bit happy.

Then one day Kelly discovered that having a baby brother is fun. And to her enormous relief Kelly found that Mommy and Daddy have not stopped loving her at all.

Writer Toews has produced a marvelous book detailing the problems young children often face when they are presented with a new sibling.

The photographs of Kelly and her family are a delight.

This is a read to book for the younger set. Kelly and her struggle to understand what has happened to her family since that new baby has arrived is one that parents will understand, and little ones will enjoy since so many of them will have the same concerns for the very reason as does Kelly.

The book provides lots of opportunity for children and parent to chat about their fears and delights over their own new sibling. This is a well thought out work sure to please parents who may be looking for something to help them assuage the new baby jitters in their own ‘big girl or boy.’

I will admit I prefer PDF format to any other eFormat, however, I enjoyed the book as it was sent to me.
