Summary: Perfect Gift For Big-sibling
Review: I bought this as a gift & was pleased as I read it, before wrapping it up. Shows pics of breastfeeding, baby-sling wearing, Dad helping-out. Great book! I'll give this to Big-Sibling at the same time as I give the new baby gift.

Summary: What a fabulous, realistic book!
Review: I love this book! It explains to older siblings why mama always has to nurse the baby, hold the baby, sleep with the baby. It never ever mentions formula even once and it shows many of the tools that parents use that just aren't present in most books. Mommy & Daddy both wear the baby and the baby sleeps in a cosleeper!! The book also contains a lot of great reminders and tips for Mom & Dad to help an older sibling make friends with the baby, and feel important. Makes me want to have another baby just so we would need it in our house!

Review: I think this is a great book! It covers the basics of having a baby in the house and being a big sister/brother with out saying how awful it might be. It also gives a pretty good picutre of what life will be like. I like the probreastfeeding pictures and words. All of my kids love this book.

Summary: a must for brand new brothers/sisters
Review: My 4 years old son loves this seewt book. This gives soon to be older sibs good idea of haw it is like to have a new baby in the family. This is one of rare book in this topic that put a lot of emphasis on older sibs while describing about their babies. Perfect for attatchement style families who are looking for a book without a picture of bottles or pacifiers. Also, families expecting 3rd or more babies would like to see that the family in this book is having the 3rd baby, while a lot of books are featuring familoes with just 2 children.

Summary: Comforting book for children with new siblings.
Review: When parents bring a new baby home, they usually have an idea of what needs this new life will have. Their new baby will be totally dependant on them. If parents have young children at home, they may not know what the new baby's needs will be. And even if they did, they may feel as though they are no longer needed. How can parents ease their children's fears about the new baby, and help them understand what their new sibling needs?

In the book, "What Baby Needs," from the famous Sear's Children's Library, children will find out exactly what new babies need. The story begins by explaining things that the new baby needs...the same needs that the sibling had. Young children will be reminded of how their parents took care of them when they were babies, and they'll learn what their new role will be in the new baby's life. They will feel comforted knowing that their parents lovingly cared for them, the same way their parents will be caring for their new baby.

There are little sections throughout the book called, "What About Me?" that help siblings understand and realize that they are important too. They provide information on their new role as "big brother" or "big sister," and gives them ideas on ways they can connect with the new baby.

My ParenTime highly recommends "What Baby Needs" - young children will find it very easy to relate to. It also answers many of the questions that they probably have about the new baby's needs and their role in its new life. Young children are sure to enjoy this book. My 6 year old enjoyed this story :-).
