Reviews

[Amber Jones]

This is a cute book about a big sister getting a new baby brother and all of her thoughts and feelings that she is having. She was unsure about him at the beginning because of the change but by the end she realized that she loved him anyways. This book is a great story for children who are about to become big siblings to know what to expect or to have something to relate to.
