beautiful story
Beautifully illustrated story of a new born and a the brother's feelings. Gave my child a view into another country's customs when a baby is born. There is only a sentence per page for those children who have a hard time sitting still being read to.

This review is from: One Round Moon and a Star for Me (Hardcover)
I bought this for my 2 1/2 yr old when she was becoming a big sister. I loved the illustrations in this book and I liked the African cultural themes. I wish the rest was as good. The child in this book worries that his dad is not his dad anymore after a new baby is born. The way the dad reassures the child is by pointing out that their hands look alike and the child's eyes look like mamas. My child has not expressed worries about whether we are still her parents and I don't want to bring up such a disturbing thought for her if it is not on her mind already. Also, as I look around me I see many families where parents and children have differently colored, textured, or shaped eyes, skin, or hair. I don't want to buy books that teach my child that having identical physical features is necessary to be a family.
