Review
Tina Powell resurrects the ancient art of matchmaking between siblings. There is no better way to create attachment and pre-empt rivalry than endearing the older sibling to the baby. This book is a wonderful way to start! --Dr. Gordon Neufeld, Developmental Psychologist
This is a delightful book that will surely help smooth the introduction of a new baby into a family. Directed at toddlers and preschoolers, the book gives the new baby a voice that explains the abilities, limitations, and developmental potential of an infant. The book will enhance the older child's self-esteem by illustrating so many things that an older child can do and will also develop the big sister or brother's capacity to empathize with the baby. Reading this book to a new big sister or brother is a marvelous way to help the child work through feelings of rivalry and displacement that commonly occur when a new baby comes home. --Dr. Joanne Cummings, Ph.D. C.Psych.

Tina thought that was a splendid idea! Who better to teach an older sibling what a baby can and cannot do than the baby itself! It was at that moment Hi! I Am the New Baby was born.
