Great Big Sister Book!
I love this Big Sister book by Caroline Jayne. The story puts a fun spin on how the big sister will help the baby and be involved, teaching the value of family and embracing a new addition. The illustrations are beautiful, capturing my toddler's attention and helping her learn. This is a wonderful book for big sisters or those soon-to-be big sisters!

This is my little cousin's favourite book. She's 2 and having a new baby brother in the house was worrying for her as she's the only child. This book is perfect for a big sister who is having a new little brother. She can relate to it so much amd insists she has it read to her on every Zoom call we have!
