Reviews

Selected as one of the 12 best Children's books of 2015 "A humorous take on the conflicting emotions that younger siblings can inspire." Independent on Sunday Book Of The Week "Here is an artist who, like Sarah Garland, is portraying a recognisable family with a freshness that is immediately attractive. The topic may not be new but the presentation is lively and engaging and establishes Sterling as an illustrator to watch." Books for Keeps "A perfect gift for an older sibling with a new baby in the family." Parents in Touch "This is not only perfect for new parents or those children new to being a sibling, it is also a fun, funny picture book that everyone will love for its great pictures and warm text." Armadillo Books We Like "Frances Lincoln ensure cultural diversity is represented so these illustrations present a mixed race family. The style is fresh and young with beautiful colours and some lovely silly scenes" Booktrust "With vibrant child-friendly illustrations and a laugh-aloud story, this clever book is just the book to share with age three and upwards." Irish Examiner
