When a family brings a new baby home, there are many changes. Older siblings may find it hard to understand the needs of the new baby, as well as the demands placed on mom and dad. Based on the attachment-parenting theories of the foremost authorities on parenting and childcare, William Sears, M.D., and Martha Sears, R.N., this book clearly explains baby's needs. The text emphasizes how siblings can be helpers to both baby and parents, while forging their own relationships with "their baby," and outlines the positive aspects of being an older girl or boy. Here is a warm, insightful book that will help the whole family joyously and lovingly welcome the newest member into their lives.

  • Great new sibling book

    Ex library book but in good condition esp consider its age and history. Bought it to introduce concept of new baby to our toddler daughter. Daughter wanted to read it 2.5 times in a row (she got distracted by milk on 3rd read!!) Introduces concepts of attachment parenting, breastfeeding, co sleeping but also encourages big sibling involvement. It took a long time to find a "new sibling" book that I liked. It is American, but the foreword does encourage you to modify the wording (eg breastfeeding terminology) to make it fit with your parenting and the age of the sibling.
