What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book is secular and entirely hopeful. It does not address the darker sides of sibling rivalry or parental exhaustion, choosing instead a purely celebratory and welcoming approach to the life milestone.
Ideal Reader
An eighteen month old who is curious about the new 'tiny human' in the house and needs a calm moment with a parent to feel reassured that there is enough love to go around.
Parent Prep
This book can be read cold. It is designed for quick, soothing sessions during bedtime or nursing intervals. The parent may have noticed their older child acting out for attention or feeling 'pushed out' by the new baby's needs, and wants a tool to ground the family in shared affection.
