Children's ✦ Penny’s Take

I Am a Big Sister!

Caroline Jayne Church · 2015
74/100
👍 Worth It

Church's soft-pastel warmth and reassuring tone hit exactly the right note for a toddler bracing for a new baby. It does exactly one thing — validate the big-sister role — and does it gently and well. The brevity some parents find thin is actually a feature for a squirmy two-year-old lap read.
