Product Description:
A young boy records the ups and downs of life as a new big brother in a scrapbook of funny, earnest letters and other touching memorabilia.
There's a baby on the way! Of course, Mike is very excited and curious about his new sibling. And he's very eager to assume his new role as a big brother. To start, he's decided to record his observations and experiences in a series of letters to the baby, displayed here along with playful illustrations of Mike's own drawings, family 'snapshots,' and even a sonogram. Whether Mike is feeling like an 'invisible boy' or boasting of his new sister's talents, whether furious when she breaks his favorite toy or proud to save her from a hot curling iron, his account of his first year of life as an older brother evolves into a very special keepsake — and a funny, honest, and heartfelt tribute to sibling relationships.

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Great for a together read
The letter/ scrapbook format of this book really makes it easy to read and discuss issues that come with being a big brother. It's a great book for parents with older siblings becoming big brother/ sister to read together. Great as a springboard for conversations on what comes with being a big brother, and how your youngster might be feeling about it.
