About This Book
A parent should reach for this book when their child is showing signs of jealousy or anxiety about a new sibling. Through the eyes of Truelove, a once-pampered dog, this story explores the feelings of being displaced when a new baby arrives. Truelove's humorous, naughty antics are a gentle way to externalize a child's own confusing emotions. Ultimately, he learns that his family's love hasn't been replaced, but has grown to include him and the baby. It’s perfect for ages 3-6, using comedy and a lovable animal protagonist to reassure children that there is always enough love to go around.
