The bond between a new baby and its sibling is always special and uniquely rewarding. Sometimes, however, it is difficult to adapt to the baby's wants and needs! A new addition to any family is exciting, but the experience can also be worrying and confusing for siblings. Coping with the new situations and emotions that arise can be very challenging. This series of four board books deals with the anticipation of waiting for the new baby, the excitement of the arrival itself, and the beginnings of the special relationship that develops between siblings. The simple conversational text and lively illustrations are carefully designed to encourage further dialogue between reader and child.

Review

"These four books in the New Baby series are just right for toddlers awaiting and adjusting to the birth of a new sibling. They cover pregnancy, welcoming the baby, and learning to play and live together. ... The multiracial families are always smiling and gentle. Colorful artwork fills each page. The writing is clear, conversational, and full of common situations." School Library Journal 20110401 --School Library Journal

"The New Baby series from Child's Play is spot on accurate. ... watercolors and graphite or grease pencil outlines are friendly and exuberant." Readertotz blog 20110401 --Readertotz Blog

5.0 out of 5 stars New Big Brothers and Sisters
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2021

Very entertaining with bright, bold illustrations and story telling of actual events.
I purchased the 4 book set and started reading to my 2yr.old grandson 3-4 times a week. We facetime daily at bedtime with him in Sweden. Since his sister was born he has been able to help in her care by doing things we read about in his books. He even learned a lullaby I was singing to her when I stayed with them, and sings to her when she is upset.

5.0 out of 5 stars Held her attention longer than her other books!
Reviewed in the United States on August 5, 2011

My daughter loves this series! She's 17 months and we've been reading these together with her to get ready to have another baby. I love how there's very little text to encourage more talking about the pictures, my daughter personally doesn't like her books that have a lot of words to read, it doesn't hold her attention as well at this stage. I call the older child in the books by my daughter's name when we're reading and then ask her where the baby is. She points to it every time! (Except the Waiting for Baby book, she doesn't really understand yet that there's a baby in Mommy's tummy) The illustrations are very beautifully done, and I also love how the baby is nursing since my daughter is too, it's easier to talk about how she might have to share when baby comes. Would definitely recommend the entire series for a big sibling to be!

5.0 out of 5 stars Especially Great for Ethnic Emphasis
Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2019

This really could be used for all ethnic groups, but I liked it because photos depict a child of color. It stresses independence and self-worth for a child who now has a new sibling! I was overjoyed to give this as a Christmas bonus gift.

5.0 out of 5 stars "Mommy, is that me? Is that Brother?"
Reviewed in the United States on June 10, 2016

I love this book. It is great to see a book with a black family. My 2 year old has an infant brother and he is positive that the characters in the book are the two of them. It has helped him embrace the idea of having a little brother and finding pride in being a big brother. He enjoys reading it to me now.

3.0 out of 5 stars Adorable, but...
Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2013
Verified Purchase
We purchased this whole series to prepare my 2.5 y/o for his little brother. Though the concept is great and the illustrations wonderful, the "conversation starter" text is a bit lacking. I bought these with the specific purpose of the jump off points to open the q&a, but a lot of the sentences don't make a ton of sense, at least not to me or my husband (or my parents), to start a conversation between my son and I. The page pictured, is one of the only places they make sense. And this goes for all the books in the series. He loves these books, though, and that's what matters. I do recommend them, but just be prepared to carry most of the concept yourself.

I hope this helps with the division of free time. It will help the older child understand that babies can't wait like the big girl she is.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Series for Toddler with New Sibling
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2017
Verified Purchase
Excellent for showing toddler all the great things they can do as a "big sibling". Kids are 22 months apart and helps the older understand/fee special about being the big sister. Love that the kids are gender neutral so can be boys or girls, sisters or brothers depending on the situation.

Cute book. It is simple and I recommend it for kids who are preparing for a new sibling or just got one. It doesn't explain anything, but gives kids some scenarios of what to expect with a new baby.

5.0 out of 5 stars Serie di libri molto utili
Reviewed in Italy on September 21, 2021
Verified Purchase
A mio parere questa serie di libri (li ho presi tutti e 4) sono utilissimi per bimbi piccoli con fratellini/sorelline in arrivo. Molto descrittivi nei disegni rappresentano la realtà di una famiglia che cresce. Davvero apprezzati anche dal mio bimbo di 2 anni. I personaggi sono rappresentati con un genere "neutro", quindi vanno bene sia per l'arrivo di una bimba che di un bimbo

5.0 out of 5 stars Ein Jahr spaeter immer noch oft und gern gelesen.

Pro's

1. Mein Sohn (3.5 Jahre) findet das Buch ein Jahr nach dem Kauf immer noch toll und will es immer wieder hoeren.
2. Das Buch setzt ein gutes Beispiel dafuer wie man das kleineres Geschwister behandeln soll.
3. Das Buch ist wunderschoen illustriert
4. Diese Buecherreihe ist multikulturel (jedes Buch der Reihe stellt eine andere Hautfarbe dar)

Contra's

1. Koennte mehr Text enthalten
2. Das aeltere Kind kann schon ein richtiges Bild malen (passt zum Alter 4+), wird aber auf einer anderen Seite aufm Töpfchen sitzend dargestellt (was sogar einem drei jaehrigen kaum passt)

Eigentlich, obwohl die Bewertungen fuer das erste Buch (Waiting for the Baby) positiver ausgefallen sind, finde ich die andere drei Buecher der Reihe (New Baby, You and Me und Look at Me) besser gelungen. Alles in allem ist das das beste, was ich zum Thema fuer juengere Kids gefunden habe. Im ersten Buch finde ich einige Momente problematisch. Z.B. das Kind darf das Zimmer fuer das neue Baby mitmalen - finde ich voellig unpassend fuer das Alter. Fuer Vorbereitung des Kindes auf ein Baby, wuerde ich noch das What Baby Needs von William Sears empfehlen.
