BOOKS TO PREPARE young children FOR A sibling

You understand what a great deal of people do about two years after they have a baby? They have one more one.

Is this — or was this — your plan? Making siblings is powerful stuff.

Before Scarlett was born, I took a bit class assisting young children prepare for a new sibling. The trainer shared a book listing with us. I believed I’d share it with you.

I’m not stating that purchasing a new book for your kid will resolve all the difficulties you’re about to deal with juggling two kids, however I do believe it was useful to set Julian’s expectations about what the infant would be able to do. (NOTHING!)  The Joanna Cole book is the one we checked out the most.
