Book Reviews of My New Baby (New Baby Series)
Book Review: Disappointed
Summary: 2 Stars
I was disappointed that the book was only pictures and that there was nothing to read to my toddler.Book Review: We recommend it! One of our son's two favorite new baby books.
Summary: 5 Stars
Our son is 2 and preparing for the arrival of new baby. "My New Baby" and "Waiting for Baby" by Annie Kubler are by far his two favorites (out of about eight books on the topic that are written for toddlers). Illustrations are fantastic, and we are happy that the book has no words as we would most likely not use them (we don't speak English to our son, and the absence of the words leaves all members of our family open to creating the story that fits our life most). We love the fact that breastfeeding is pictured (discretely) and that the whole family is portrayed equally involved in the life with the new baby. Our son initiates the readings on his own, about twice a day, and seems genuinely excited about the baby. Book Review: Not my favorite

My son, 2 1/2, seemed to enjoy this book but I thought it was kinda babyish for him though the manufacture states for preschoolers. Book Review: Great book for preparing a toddler for new baby!
Summary: 5 Stars
I purchased 4 books along this theme to help prepare my 2 year old son for the impending birth of our daughter. This one is hands down our favorite. It's the only one he actually asks to have "read" to him. It doesn't have any words, but each picture lends itself to discussing different baby-related situations. From the baby shower, to the baby crying and nursing and taking the baby out for a walk. On each page the older sibling is portrayed in a an important role, helping to unwrap presents, helping to prepare dinner, helping by holding a toy for the baby. It's great!! Book Review: Busy Book
Summary: 4 Stars
It's good to see a couple of pages showing Mom breast feeding her baby. Maybe parents might like to create their own version of telling stories, but my guess is that very young children love consistency and being able to see words in a book along with the pictures. Without text, I doubt anyone will tell the story exactly the same way every time the book is "read."
My daughter's guess was that her son didn't like this book as much as I'm a Big Brother, because each page in this book [My New Baby] may be too busy with all what's in each picture.
