5.0 out of 5 stars Waiting for baby, 3 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This book has proved to be an invaluable way of talking about the baby growing in mummy's tummy. Our two and a half year old amazed us by telling us what it was about and by using the illustrations to describe what was going on in our family. The simple illustration of 'the mummy having a scan' helped when we took him along to the hospital to see the baby 'on telly', as he really seemed to understand what was happening. This book has enabled our son to lead the conversation and to ask his own questions about the baby, although the picture of daddy helping to cook the dinner has left him somewhat mystified!!
A fantastic book that I couldn't rate any higher.

4.0 out of 5 stars a well designed book for toddlers, 7 Nov 2003
By Peter Stevenson (Jakarta, Indonesia) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I am impressed with this book. There are no words, but that lets us tailor the story for our daughter. The main character is indeterminant sex, so it will work with boys and girls.
There is plenty to look at in each picture and it is a very happy story.
This book has captured our daughter's imagination and I hope it prepares her for her upcoming big sisterhood.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth its weight ..., 15 Oct 2006
By Lynnie O'connell (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book was so helpful. I didn't realize until afterwards what a big impact it had on our son. I didn't mention I was having a baby until a month or two before. I showed him the book a few times, talking about what was happening and emphazing the more relevant pages. He told my husband he was supposed to bring me a cup of tea! (while the mother puts her feet up) I think the book really helped him make sense of things. We 'read' the book an hour before I went off to the hospital. There is a picture of the father opening the car door for the mother and she's got a bag and the grandmother is at the door of the house with the boy. That is exactly what happened. He kept looking in the book as if to see that what happened was right or to see what happens next. What does happen next is the boy comes in with his father to visit the mother in the hospital. This book prepares young children for the excitement of shopping and decorating for a baby, the scan, the mother resting more, the mother going off to the hospital and the presence of the baby. It helps them make sense of it.
