[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.
