5.0 out of 5 stars Buy this book!, June 29, 2001

This review is from: My New Baby And Me: A First Year Record Book For Big Brothers And Big Sisters (Paperback)

I bought this book for my seven year old daughter. It is such a wonderful little book for her to work on. She loves her baby brother and has had a ball working on this kid-friendly book. I also liked how it has sections that she fills out about herself, so she feels special too. This book would also work for a younger child with an adult helping them. If you have an older child and a new baby I highly recommend buying this book for your older child. It will be a wonderful family keepsake for both older child and baby!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for New brothers and sisters, March 14, 2001

My son just loves this new book. This book is great for younger kids as it is geared toward them. There are lots of boxes they can check all by themselves if they are unable to write yet. This books also asks them many questions about themselves, which helps them to feel important too. There are also pages where they can compare themselves to the new baby; such as tracing each of their feet and comparing them. There is also some humorous and silly questions too (My son loved these the best). I would highly recommend this book to anyone that has an older child excepting a new baby in their family.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must have for all new big brothers or sisters!, April 30, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: My New Baby And Me: A First Year Record Book For Big Brothers And Big Sisters (Paperback)

I first found this book when we were about to have our second child 3 years ago. My oldest son couldn't wait to fill out each page. Even when Mom would forget, he would always remind me that it was time to fill in for 3 mos, 6 mos etc. There are so many things to fill out about the older sibling that the book is really a keepsake about them too. In a time that an older sibling might be resenting the new baby, this is the perfect book. I have since purchased one for my two sons to fill out about their new baby sister. And it is a must for all my friends having their second babies! I make sure they all have their own copies too!

IT'S THE BEST!!!!
