Making room for a new sibling

A new baby can change familiar routines and bring up feelings that toddlers are still learning to name. This board book addresses both sides of that transition: it explains some changes a child might notice at home and introduces jealousy as one possible response. It also offers ways for a young sibling to take part, such as engaging with the baby and sharing what they know. The focus on recognizing and communicating complicated feelings gives families a starting point for talking about the adjustment, while the sturdy illustrated format is designed for very young children.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Toddlers preparing to welcome a new baby into the family
  • Families seeking age-appropriate ways to discuss sibling-related feelings
  • Caregivers looking for an illustrated board book about changes at home
