Read and re-read

They tell me that this book was read twice the day it was received. It gave mom another reason to sit quietly with big brother and give him some attention and give him positive feedback about becoming a big brother. The new baby was adopted and it happened "overnight" almost so big brother was "caught off guard". This book was a big help in smoothing the process.

Great preparation for 3-4 year old sibling

I bought this book as a gift for a friend's 2 year old who was about to become a big brother. It is probably age appropriate for a 3-4 year old. The simple story line is very positive and reviews what it will be like when baby comes home, and what babies do and need. Helpful preparation for a young sibling to know what to expect with the new member of the family. Cute book.

wonderful book, for kids of all ages

I bought this book for my son, to prepare for the arrival of his baby sister. He was only 16m when I started reading it to him, and almost 2 when his sister ws born. He LOVED this book. he requested it nightly (making my life easier cause I would have read it anyway =)) He was so excited to be the BIG brother by the time his sister arrived, and I really believe this book helped with that. It points out all the great thing tha big kids can do that babies cannot. It also show the care and attention a baby will require, at the same time showing how both the baby and big sibling are special. Even after the birth of my daughter I continued to recite the book, when my son would want her to eat play ect, I would say "the baby is to little to walk, to little to talk to little to play with toys, to little to eat pizza and apples and ice cream. " this would satisfy him, and he'd move on. I would certainly buy/recommend this book to anyone exspecting another child.

Great!

My 2 1/2 year old took great interest in this book from the first time we read it. He's still not quite putting together the fact that there is a baby in mommy's belly, but he seems very excited to be a big brother now. He definitely likes the distinctions of what he can do that the baby will not be able to do.

Very wonderful Book!

I bought this book for my six year old nephew who is going to get a baby sister in May 2008. I read the book when it arrived at my house. I loved it...it was simple to read and the pictures where nice too. I'd suggest this book for others looking for this type of book.

The author/artist creators of How I Was Adopted present this child's-eye view of family life, deftly describing the joy of welcoming a new sibling into the family. A companion volume to I'm a Big Sister.
