Such a sweet book for any new big brother or soon to be big brother. The diversity of this book makes it work for any family which are the best type of books. Well done Target on coming out with this one. It is sure to be a favorite.

Always a hit!

Such a great gift for a newly promoted big brother (or sister; that one’s cute too!). Easy to understand explanations/examples for kids!

Big Brother help

We enjoyed reading this book with my toddler. He now wants to read it every night since our newborn has made its arrival and he even tries to help us now like what the character of big brothers do in the book. We enjoy this book reading together.

Great Little Book

I bought this for my grandson, who is now a big brother. It's a sweet story and perfect for an only child to help understand what this new little one means in his life - in the best possible way.

Similar

Cute but very similar to I Am a Big Brother by Caroline Jayne Church. We bought both and they are nearly the same page by page.

Not for us

This book was not a good fit for our family. I would recommend parents look through it before buying to decide if it’s good for their children.

Adorable book when welcoming new baby

I bought this book for my toddler boy when he became a big brother. I feel like he understands the book because the pictures are clear and the words are also cute and simple to understand. I also like that the words rhyme on each page and that it really positively shows how a big brother can help and also the big responsibility it entails (in a kid friendly way). I find my toddler opening up this book on his own and scrolling through the pages because he loves it so much.

2yr old loves it!

My son made this his book of choice at bedtime for weeks. I think it made him look forward to the arrival of his sister! I love that there are a variety of families shown. Also the babies in the book are not obviously boy or girl so it would work for a little sister or brother

Love it

So cute. I especially love the title, it’s a perfect way to announce the news. The pages are a little thinner than most other board books, but it still seems like it should hold up ok. Our little guy is very interested in it so far too.
