Our Daugher & Big Sister Loves This Book

Our daughter was 3 yrs & 1 week old when our son was born and we bought this book because it was about a big sister with a little brother. Our daughter loves this book and so do we. We do not think that it is negative - rather realistic in that there will be frustrations and adjustments that the older child will have to make when the baby arrives. She recites the parts about being patient and having special time with Mommy...

Excellent preparation for big sister

I thought this book was great. I understand what previous reviewers are saying about the sister seeming to be ignored, but I think what we have to keep in mind is that she is probably not waiting as long as we think she is - the book is written from her perspective, not the parents'.

The BEST book for bringing a baby home I've seen!

"Big Sister Now" is on my list of "gotta haves" and "gotta give" to all friends and friends'kids who are bringing second and third and forth babies home to older sibblings.

This book is sure to delight, educate and open doors of communication between...

Big People Will Also Love Big Sister Now!

Big People will find Big Sister Now as delightful a read as Big Sisters and Brothers. Author Annette Sheldon dared go where few have gone before-she successfully entered the mind of a 2 ½ year old and stayed there throughout the entire book. Every one of Big Sister Kate's insecurities, fears, and exclamations regarding the new baby rings "toddler-true." And illustrator Karen Maizel nailed the toddler's persona, character,...
