Best-Ever Big Sister

By Karen Katz

Book Overview

Babies sure have a lot of growing up to do! They can't eat with a fork, sleep in a real bed, poop on a potty, ride a trike, or read a book. On every sweet lift-the-flap spread, Karen Katz's illustrations celebrate the varied accomplishments of older siblings who may be in need of a little ego-stroking after a new baby's arrival! Each book ends on a warm, loving note with the older child reassuring the baby that "one day you'll be big like me."

Customer Reviews

AWESOME!!!

I bought this book for my niece. She absolutely LOVES it!!! She always wants her parents to read it and it's preparing her for when her baby sister comes in October. I recommend this book for anyone who is trying to prepare a child for siblings! EXCELLENT!!!

Great Book - my two year old loves it, and I think she's ready!

We're expecting twins in a few weeks, so I put several Big Sister and New Baby books in our reading rotation - she loves this one! We love all of Karen Katz books.

Great book for your 1-3 yr old

We bought this for our 2 yr old when our next child was due. These books are great and teach things so well. We were able to use this book to explain that babies cant do all the things a big girl can do...so thats why babies need a little more help. We also have the little book of manners and NO Hitting! They have been great! We have 5 of Karen Katz books. Although now our 4 yr old seems bored with them...but the 18 mo old loves them.

Best Ever Big Sister

My baby loves this book. Shes not a big sister just yet, but when the baby is born, she'll know all about being a big sister!!!

my daughter likes it

My 3 yo likes this book about being the best big sister ever- i have to adapt it when i read it as its all about being a big sister to a little sister and we have a newborn boy. Also some of the things my daughter cant do yet- for example one page says My sister poopies in her diaper but I poopy on the potty... well, my daughter doesnt do that yet. A couple of other things too I have to adapt- but she does ask for this book frequently.
