Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 1—With typical sibling rivalry, Rosie, a rodent, first plays with her baby sister and then gets tired of her and tries to give her away. Luckily, she takes the child to her sitter, a gentle adult male who takes Buttercup in without question and is later willing to trade her back for snack food—sun-dried dandelion puffs. Rosie's emotions are expressed through her activities and actions in a thoughtful and gentle way. No reprimands are given, and the sisters are happily reunited in a resolved relationship. The pretty watercolors are delicately displayed and have touches of ribbons and flowers. The white backgrounds make the colors and characters stand out. Children will want to hear this story more than once; it is a good choice for those who are faced with accepting a newcomer in the family.—Erlene Bishop Killeen, Stroughton Area School District, WI

Rosie’s emotions are expressed ... in a thoughtful and gentle way ... Children will want to hear this story more than once ... (School Library Journal )
Uegaki and Jorisch ... bring poise and polish to a well-worn subject ... Uegaki’s assured text assumes an intelligent reader ... Jorisch’s watercolor illustrations, uncluttered but dense with patterns, are crisp against generous fields of white space ... (Publishers Weekly )
... Uegaki’s saucy protagonist and her wry observations will garner fans among young readers, Jorisch’s watercolor illustrations have a quaint feel to them ...This understanding offering is bound to reassure young readers also struggling to adjust to a new sibling. (Kirkus Reviews )
