Editorial Reviews

…a triumphant paean to big-sister- and brotherhood…

The New York Times Book Review - Pamela Paul

"Confident sunniness."— Publishers Weekly

"Katz’s signature, colorful, stylized characters rendered in watercolor and gouache romp through the pages... A sweet celebration of leaving baby days behind."— Kirkus Reviews

"Katz’s signature rosy-cheeked kids of different ethnicities—wearing patterned clothes on bright backgrounds—are full of joy and energy; their pride is all over these pages, and that’s something toddlers will understand."— Booklist

"The thoughtful construction of the text, the chipper illustrations, and the age-appropriate topic give this go-to utility for both parents and librarians."— BCCB

"[A] triumphant paean to big-sister- and brotherhood."— The New York Times Book Review
