Love that baby! ISBN: 9781844287581
Lasky, Kathryn and Plecas, Jennifer
Published by Walker, 2005
The sub-title of this - 'a book about babies for new brothers, sisters, cousins and friends' - gives away the fact that this is real information, though presented in a fun and very accessible way. Different sections show us: babies awake, how they yawn, stretch and roll over; 'yum yum' shows us baby being fed by breast or bottle and how messy feeding baby can be; 'baby talk' explains about babble, cooing and gurgling, and in 'baby cries' we learn about how and why they do so. There are sections on playing games with baby and how babies react to baths, and a final one on the weird places babies fall asleep. This is a wonderful book for preparing children for the eventful beginning of another person's life, and the lively, honest illustrations add much to the information and fun.
