Trade Review"Beautifully illustrated with lovely warm colours throughout, really captures the early stages of adjustment that a family goes through when a new baby arrives."
* Children's Books Ireland *
"A funny, silly picture book perfectly capturing the feelings of children when a new baby joins the family."
* Armadillo Magazine *
“Sensitively written and illustrated, Marie-Louise beautifully captures the feelings of a young child adapting to a new baby in the family. I’d strongly recommend families in a similar situation to the family in the story to get hold of a copy of this lovely book and share it with the big brother or sister. It’s a good one to add to foundation stage collections too.”
* Red Reading Hub *
"...expertly encapsulates the new-baby-sibling experience for young children... the story will have you gripped from beginning to end... sure to resonate with any young reader with baby siblings, a must-read to have in every home."
* Books Ireland *
"This funny picture book with beautiful illustrations perfectly captures the feelings of a young child’s frustration when a new baby arrives in the family, and steals some of the attention previously bestowed on them. This is a really good read aloud book for two years and above... an especially good for children who have recently welcomed a new baby into their home…
A simple story, perfect for young pre-schoolers which also works well as an action story, with children roaring, kicking, and pretending to bite – we had a lot of fun with it."
