Praise
[G]etting rid of a baby sibling is a powerful fantasy. Indulging it with this happy-ending tale, softened wiht pastel illustrations and a pig-tailed heroine, can’t hurt.
—New York Times Book Review
While many versions of this familiar storyline are available, it’s Dempsey’s charming watercolor-and-pen illustrations that set this apart. The soft, pale hues against white backgrounds create tender scenes in a style that blends the wispy touch of Charlotte Voake and the sensibility of Jan Ormerod.
—Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
[Dempsey] reveals emotional depth and a gentle but sure sense of visual humor.
—Publishers Weekly
First-time author Dempsey has captured a young child’s emotions and daydreams in this charming story about adjusting to a new baby in the house.
—Booklist
Charming pictures of a warm and loving family are the highlight of this gentle tale of a universal predicament.
—School Library Journal
Charming in every way, this fun, loving story is perfect for older siblings who might be adjusting to sharing Mom’s love and attention.
