Meet the Smiths: a happy family composed of two dogs, one cat, and two humans. But when the humans decide to adopt a dog named Trevor from the humane society, the other pets become sad, clingy, jealous, and afraid. Will Trevor get all the humans’ time and attention? Who will play with the other pets, or snuggle them when they’re lonely and blue? This comforting story about the arrival of a new family member reassures soon-to-be big brothers and sisters that sharing love means more love for everyone, not less love for them.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Wonderful story that reminds us why everyone in the family is important,
This review is from: The Smith Family's New Puppy: Helping Children Cope with a New Family Member (Let's Talk) (Paperback)
A common source of frustration for children, is when a new brother or sister is received into their family. This may stir up many negative feelings, and they might actually fear the arrival of their new family member. Not all children deal with this situation in the same way, and many just don't know how to handle their feelings. That's why we're glad there are books like, "The Smith Family's New Puppy," to help children cope with a new member of their family."The Smith Family's New Puppy," by Dana Smith-Mansell, M.S., is about the Smith family: Darla and Ray (the humans), and three pets, two dogs Hanna & Darby, and Kearsey the cat. All the pets in the family had their own place and possessions until Darla and Ray decided to add another dog, Trevor, to their family. Poor Trevor -- he did all he could to try and fit in with the other pets, but he was just not feeling too accepted by them. Until one day, when Trevor helped get Hanna, Darby and Kearsey out of a tough situation. It was then that Darla explained that everyone needs each other in a family. From that moment on, all the pets shared their possessions, and Trevor was accepted as one of the family. :) MyParenTime.com highly recommends this book -- the illustrations are colorful and expressive, and the story is easy to read. We think it's a wonderful story for any child who is expecting a new member into the family... it reminds us why everyone in the family is important.
