This sounds like such a sweet story for kids. I love how it talks about a new baby and will maybe help calm nervousness about a new baby. Congrats on the book of the day! Great review.

This sounds like a lovely story to help deal with feelings of jealousy and sibling rivalry. I do love books for children with a strong educational message and this one seems to have the right balance between serious and lighthearted material. I love the cover illustration too. Thanks for your review.

The story has a cute, and fun premise. I also like the fact that the book is not too preachy.

Thank you for the lovely review.

Great review. This sounds like a great book for pre and beginning readers. It’s nice when a children’s book is well balanced between pictures and words. I also like it when the book teaches life lessons in such a fun way that it’s not preachy at all. Congrats to the author on a great review. Thanks so much for sharing.

I get what you mean about how you could almost "hear" their voices. Sometimes I get it from other books too.
Based on your review, I think we need more book like this at home or school for children. Thanks for your review!

it's an old age tale that tends to communicate a message of belonging to current youth generation.. It's more than great 8)

Children's books like this an excellent way to teach children life lessons as well as cultivate their love for reading. Although we all have differences, we can learn to get along. Thank you for your review!

Like me, if they’re an older sibling, they’ll be able to see themselves in the tale and take away something especially relevant to themselves.
This is a great quality: to be able to teach without the student knowing. Sounds like a fun, instructional book for kids. I really enjoyed reading your review. Well done!

Acceptance in spite of differences. What a novel idea. It sounds like this book successfully conveys the intended message to children of all ages. Let’s all incorporate this message into our everyday lives.
