    “Absolutely enchanting and nostalgic. Anything by John Birmingham is a good idea, and in this book he collaborate with another treasured children’s book author, Helen Oxenbury. The book tackles “the swirl of questions in the mind of a young child anticipating a baby sibling with excitement, curiosity, and just a bit of trepidation”. A true classic.”
